This sort of thing is critical in suppporting digital workplace mentality, which microsoft peddle through O365. It may seem like quite a specific piece of functionality, but the concept of a digital workplace suffers from lots of specific pieces of functionality not being available.
- Exactly... if Microsoft doesn't quickly adopt a Google like mentality (where B2C workloads) are more readily available, they will be eating the O365's lunch despite being a more well organized and powerful platform. The "corporation" is no longer an island, the contractors, partners and customers must be part of the collaboration process, thus every tool in the ecosystem.
Yes, what ends up happening is that teams then just go off and use their own tools they know will work. A few years down the line and you have a lorry moving in one direction but its contents trying to move in all different directions = lorry starts slowing down and moving erratically.
