Microsoft is preparing to bring on Amazon as a customer of its 365 cloud tools in a $1 billion megadeal, according to an internal document::Preparations for this huge cloud software deal mark a significant shift in the relationship between the two technology giants.
This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
thats going to suck. 365 is hot garbage
Doing the reacharounds in public eh?
The comments here are ridiculous. 2FA works fine if configured right, ours only checks in if outside network and only once per new device every 14 days. 365 works fine as well. I have had some issues using Web Excel, but all desktop apps work pretty much the same as the others. Outlook with the try new version is the only pile of trash I’ve seen. Other than that, the one thing that does suck more than any of this is its ridiculously expensive and subscription based. The fortune we spend now and monitoring needed to be done on licenses and space used is also frustrating. Mail only offering 2gb unless higher license level is crazy especially for how much you’re paying them.
Yeah tbh never had any giant issues with M365, but it definitely requires you to set it up and plan it out right.
Why do they call it 365 when it doesn’t work for 5 days every year?
Those are just paid vacation days.
This is good news. I’m in favor of anything that makes it more difficult for Amazon to operate.
My company recently started using MS Authenticator for 2FA in our emails. At first I was pleased about the extra security. But the way they implemented it is so fucking bonkers I can’t even handle it.
When you log in, it tells you to check your phone. On your phone you have to enter your password, then wait about 10 seconds, use biometrics, then they show you a number, and then ask you to type that number - on your phone, the same fucking device they showed it to you. And if you miss the number flashing, the text box where you enter the number covers the number so you have to tap “I can’t see the number, hide this box”. Then, if you’re trying to check your email on mobile, you have to force quit Outlook because it won’t load new emails until it launches.
The worst part is that you lose your token two times a day. So you have to log in twice a day on every device you use. It’s such a hindrance to productivity it’s insane.
And if you decide not to use ms Authenticator every time you log in with a third party one it’ll recommend you to get it every time. Don’t sell me shit when I’m trying to securely log in.
Something is definitely wrong… or set up differently. I haven’t had the need to use 2FA for Microsoft products on anything after the first time I sign in to a new device. Contact your IT department. They may be able to help you.
This is company wide and countless complaints have been made.
Your IT department set it up wrong in your Microsoft tenant.
