One of our contract customer, 25 workstations, 20 or so users, service
shop. Is looking to go to the "cloud". They migrated away from exchange to
hosted a long time ago (before Microsoft got so cheap so they are on a
third party) using office 365 do ms office. Their moving their main app to
the vendor cloud, and the pbx will go to hosted cloud. .... Other than ease
of deploying new workstations, printers and policy, I am having a hard time
justifying our maintenance contract. Even WSUS I've been migrating to
server management only with client downloads since bandwidth isn't the
concern it used to be and storage bloat on wsus is always a pita (anybody
who has severe dealt with running out of drive space on an active wsus and
fixing that hates wsus)
Is AD in the SMB going the way of the dodo bird?
