What are you going to do, move to a different service? Switching out your cloud hosted office suite is probably a non starter for most companies.
Moving from GSuite to M365 is a fairly popular move. Consulting companies build around this service.

#13$20/mo still isn't bad for unlimited storage. Do any other providers come close to this price point?
I wish I could prepay for the next 10 years to lock in at this price.
How much does a petabyte of redundant hard drive storage cost? Yeah.. will probably still be more than $2,500 USD in 10 years.

#14Inflation? Monopoly?
How can Workspace be a monopoly when Microsoft 365 is a popular alternative?

#15Up 20%: Starter: $6 -> $7.20 Standard: $12 -> $14.40 Plus: $18 -> $21.60 They are also introducing an annual payment option where you can pay the old per-month prices ($6, $12, $18).
Let's not forget that just 3.5 years ago, prices were increase by 20% then as well.

#17We switched from Google to Zoho Workspace last year once they threatened to stop support to the "legacy" users. Comparable service and much less expensive.
+1 for Zoho. They offer a all the services needed at a very convenient pricing.

I just finally switched from a personal account to Workspace so I was a little concerned. Thankfully the price increase is minimal (and will be 0 since I can just pay annually).

Enterprises have long term contracts with deep discounts on official pricing and locked in pricing on many services.
