My Opinion: Why do we trust Microsoft and indeed any other cloud provider with our business? Moving our businesses forward does not necessarily mean we have to follow the technology trends forced down our throats. I urge any business to think very, very carefully about trusting to these organisations. Weigh up ALL the pro's and con's of facilities before making your decisions. There are alternatives out there!https://wp.inews.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/SEI_141564734.jpg?resize=640,360&strip=all&quality=90
