Enterprises pay Microsoft for identity management, not Office, argues thread

@jrobah argues corporates aren't paying Microsoft for Word or Excel — those have a million alternatives — but for Enterprise Identity Management: SSO, access management, easy onboarding/offboarding. Only when Claude builds that can we talk.
@marlenezw adds the point that identity and security are a huge part of why enterprises stay on M365, echoing the 'Microsoft runs on trust' motto.
