Cloudpro.co.uk has disclosed (imo) brutal and draconian steps for access to the Office Suite.

Senior executives from AWS and Google Cloud have hit out at Microsoft for changing how it charges customers using its software on other public clouds.

Some are even accusing Microsoft of trying to lock customers into a single vendor with a complex pricing structure.

From 1 October, Microsoft customers will have to pay additional fees if they want to run its software on AWS, Google or Alibaba cloud environments due to a change to its on-prem licences.

Ouch! Major marketing faux pas that will drive corporate customers away.
