"Hey I've got a great idea, let's take all these little local decentralized things and put them all onto one centralized massive thing that needs 99.99999% uptime or the world's fucked. Nothing will go wrong."
Uptime on my old exchange servers roughly matched my ISPs uptime. O365 uptime is now : My ISPs - 0365s uptime. Real improvement there.
But hey, now when email goes down I just point to their admin dashboard and shrug at people. It's a lot simpler once you get over how much harder it is.
I'm really happy that I don't have to administer any on prem exchange servers though.
