Along those lines, if you get an office 365 subscription, bundled
into this is one-drive. So unless you specifically save documents
to a file server or on/in your computer (you do not use a
one-drive path) you are using M/$ cloud.
And what I have found is, if you turn off one-drive, Word, XL,
and others have problems with saving, restoring data. But not if
you have them using a file server. ?!? And this means as soon as
you create a new spreadsheet/document/powerpoint/etc. you have to
do a "save as" to the file server.
Now, enterprise users of windows & Office, whole nuther thing.

Move to cloud?
Read details.
I know some large financial companies which also "moved to
cloud". And they still run mainframe.
What is the truth? BOTH.
They migrated MS Office to the cloud. *Partially*. Partially,
because some docx or xlsx files containing data protected by
the bank law cannot be kept in the cloud. What did they save?
It is kept secret, but the guys form IT told me it is a lot of
headache and no server or storage was released. People? Nobody
fired, a dozen "cloud specialists" hired.
Mainframe? Still processing the business transactions.
So, if you want to follow trends just move anything small (and
not crucial) to the cloud and you may say "Yes, obviously we
use the cloud".
