In 2011, Microsoft introduced Office 365, the second* generation of its cloud computing services. Office 365 brings together the cost benefits of optimised, modern server infrastructure and the familiar Microsoft Office productivity environment, for example letting you use the latest version of Microsoft Exchange Server without having to buy or administer a server. Usage is billed on a user basis. You only pay for what you actually use, giving you flexible control over your costs. This can be especially useful if you work on a per-project basis, experience seasonal fluctuations in your workload or the number of employees changes. Office 365 also greatly simplifies collaboration and exchange with external participants in projects. This reduces the hassle of setting up individual access privileges to your infrastructure.

* First generation: Business Productivity Online Suite (BPOS)
