You work for a tech startup with a combination of Linux, macOS, and Windows PCs. Most users opt to use company-provided devices, but some users instead receive a monthly stipend and use their personal devices. Which product and licensing model would make the most sense for sharing documents, presentations, and spreadsheets among all employees?
Given the requirements of a mixed-OS environment (Windows, macOS, Linux) and both company-owned and personal devices, Microsoft 365 is the best choice. It provides Microsoft Office applications that are accessible via desktop clients (for Windows and macOS) and through web browsers (for all platforms, including Linux). This model supports all users regardless of their OS or device. Microsoft Azure is a cloud computing platform for infrastructure and platform services (IaaS, PaaS), not an end-user office suite. LibreOffice is a powerful, free office suite, but it is primarily designed for desktop use and does not natively include the integrated cloud storage and web-based collaborative features that are central to Microsoft 365. "Mac Office for iCloud" is not a real product; Apple's productivity suite is called iWork (Pages, Numbers, Keynote), which uses iCloud for cloud functionality.
