Which Office 365 Package

[CrouchingWayne]

Hi guys

My wife and one other run a small business. They are looking to have backups & shared files so I have been recommended Office 365 instead of a local NAS.

What do you guys think is the best package for them with the following requirements:

1) There are two users who live at different addresses
2) They have a website domain which I have hosted & set up a couple of mailboxes - they will want to use Outlook to manage them however as the webmail offered by my host is pretty basic
3) They want desktop applications
4) They want to be able to backup and share documents

I had hoped they would get away with the Home version, but not sure it offers the same shared drive options? Plus with them at different addresses I think it is against the TOS.

That leaves 365 Business vs 365 Business Premium - difference seems to be built in mailbox. If I've got hosting already with email addresses am I as well going with the cheaper Business, or am I missing a trick somewhere?

Thanks

Yea I guess for £18 a year it might be worth going with the premium for ease.

Probably a stupid question, if I have their domain (Godaddy) is it easy enough to use it for email with Office 365 but host a website somewhere else (Vidahost in this case?)

Unless Office 365 offers any kind of hosting for their site which I don't think it does?

Thanks guys - I've gone with the Pro version to get the full email package. I'm not an IT wizard, but found the setup process to add the MS DNS to the domain via Vidahost the easiest way to set up. That said, I'm not sure it's working fully yet as I set it up and then turned off for the night!

It seems to give me an onmicrosoft email, how do I add @mydomain.com ones? I spent 5 mins looking last night but it didn't seem immediately obvious.
