Our business has been using Outlook, Excel, Word, etc. since they were first released. However, we have not gotten on Exchange. With the growing importance of remote connectivity on phones, tablets, etc., it seems like it's time to get on Exchange. I reached out to Microsoft and was paired with one of their partners. I want 15 users on Office 365 with Exchange. I was told this would be $15/user/month, which seems high to begin with, but that is their list price online and fine, we can deal. But then I was told that there would be a $4200 fee for our partner to install Office on our machines and set up Exchange. That seems ridiculous. Surely I can download Office 365 on the machines the same way I downloaded 365 Home on my home computer? Is there a way to get this going without paying a partner a ton of money for services that I don't even understand?
