Microsoft Extends Oive Branch After OneDrive Cloud Storage Storm

Microsoft has backtracked on reactions in service to cloud storage limits onedrive last month, returning part of the data map, which was created to make excuses and blame overuse users. But customers still have to choose to keep their extra storage, and the changes will end after one year.

The company confirmed the changes in a post on his forum onedrive users, giving users "affected" by changes in the opportunity for additional storage for a limited time, and the possibility of opting to keep premiums when free storage onedrive plans are reviewed early next year.

The mea culpa comes a month after Microsoft announced major changes in cloud storage, halving the storage limits for the payment plan (while the same price is maintained), the lower limits of free maps 15 GB 5 GB, leaving its storage chamber storage roll bonus of 15 GB and completely demolished "unlimited" for all users.

The company hopes the move will appease customers and gain some favor in a market and competitive cloud storage.

Microsoft is against rivals like Dropbox, Google Drive and Apple's iCloud-centric, hoping to be the only place where users can store all your files to access cloud based everywhere. While each provider offers free storage, these companies generate their revenues through payment plans and storage limits are the kings of deciding where customers are willing to hang their hats (and files).

But the group program manager Douglas Pearce Microsoft came hat in hand to customers, apologizing for the recent changes in the onedrive schemes and the way they were communicated. In his message on the forum of onedrive user, Pearce said. "Sincerely sorry for the frustration that this decision caused" "The announcement came across as blaming customers for the use of our product" and Microsoft was Culpa called Microsoft calling for "a small number of users" on unlimited plans to "extreme scenarios copy of security," in some cases up to 75TB data stored in the cloud.

While Microsoft initially established on the restriction of use, Pearce said Cabinet 365 payment, personal customers, and the University will continue to receive 1TB storage, and users who have received additional storage under Microsoft offers unlimited maintain this limit for at least 12 months.

For better with dissatisfied customers of free service, anyone with more than 5 GB of content stored in the cloud (in the old limit of 15 GB free storage) will receive 365 personal desktop without subscription for a year. The offer will arrive by mail early next year, and will bring 1TB of storage.

Finally, Microsoft offers an opt-in for their "biggest fans" keep your 15 GB of free storage after storage limits are cut early next year (and keep your camera roll edge 15 Well, if you currently have instead). And what constitutes being a fan? Onedrive go to the website in late January 2016 and connect to the bonus.

While the changes may take a long way to pacify irate customers about storage limitations, still go part of the way to scrounge cuts in November. Moreover, customers will be the main users to enjoy the existing bonus or opt for a raise. There is also no word on whether the changes will last more than a year.

Microsoft’s OneDrive debacle shows its cloud commitment is weaker than promised


When Microsoft announced earlier this week that it would no longer distributed storage with unlimited Cloud Office 365 subscribers through its service onedrive affected people obviously were not thrilled. Users who have already been without limits for the buffet all you can eat that was the endless cloud storage will soon be limited to 1 TB less satisfactory. Closed on plans 100 and 200 GB reduced to a sad 50GB at the same monthly cost. Even free users will be affected by a reduction to a meager 15 GB 5 GB of free storage. And it all happens without mentioning the film of 15 GB, which is quite the ax.
You may not, at first glance, to understand why this is frustrating. So we were cheated - A company has changed his mind a year later, because it was losing money - what's new?
But that's not the whole story. No, unlimited gift was a setback for Microsoft loyal customers a little less than a year ago. Before that, storage plans were exactly as they are now limited. Microsoft is about to face more than a career politician, but why? To make a dent in the market share of Google, of course!

A shot in the dark to Google Drive

Instead of focusing on improving global onedrive experience for its loyal customers, Microsoft was more interested in stealing customers of Google, its main rival in the cloud storage, despite the inevitable repercussions. Microsoft has explicitly called for a "war of productivity" which would - if Microsoft has its way -. Let Google and Microsoft revenue bleeding drowning Unfortunately, however, the company soon realized that was not prepared for the next fight.

Related: Why after all, no way should not even consider buying a Windows Phone
That's because, despite offering storage in the "unlimited" cloud, onedrive team ignored the fact that many of its subscribers would really enjoy unlimited storage capacity. In turn, when Microsoft has made some of its members have been added, for example, the value of pirated films collections of 75 terabytes, their jabs at Google simply not worth the cost.

However, given the average Office 365 subscribers use about 5.5 GB of its unlimited, those unauthorized downloading huge catalogs of films designated onedrive were clearly in the minority.
Microsoft did not want to allow unlimited storage
In an official statement on the blog onedrive, Redmond said it was committed to "extreme scenarios copy of security" in order to refocus on collaborative productivity solutions. First, this is not true. Secondly, it is an easy way out to wait a company proactively trying to save his own skin. As with any storage solution, the purpose of onedrive must be versatile. It should not be dependent on the specific needs of a person. It may be collaboratively and wide simultaneously.
Some dishonest users downloading a ton of data does not require as drastic as the omission of the boundary layer together measures. Unlimited duration means that there is, in fact, no limits, no bounds. Of course, some people take advantage of that. Forecast Sales of Microsoft would have taken this into account before increasing your storage options last year


Microsoft is not certain distrust San Francisco startup. It is a business worth billions of dollars, but with a number of specialists highly qualified market research. As such, you should know that his word could inflict more harm to society than the loss of a few thousand dollars a few Grabbers Internet files.
Small businesses are limitless - so Microsoft can too

I've never heard of CrashPlan or BackBlaze? Congratulations to you if they have. Certainly I lived under a rock, so when I came across these services at hand, I was amazed. For $ 5 per month you can get unlimited cloud storage of these companies. They are not giving up productivity or making use of technological clichés like "When the world is your office, your assistant CrashPlan backup staff."

Despite ensure coverage of the mainstream media as WSJ, NBC, etc. These companies are microscopic compared to Microsoft. But somehow they can afford to distribute an unlimited storage at an even lower cost to its customers.

Obviously, they will realize that a few copies in each season of your favorite HBO shows, even if it is equal to a few terabytes. But an enterprise cloud storage competent sales ignore the minority - no matter how endemic - in favor of the dominant clientele. Those who ignore the service to all but the download of the value of a few gigabytes in documents. Those who help the company make a profit.

Google lending market

If nothing more was heard of this, Microsoft may finally discover that precautions must be taken before the implementation of changes in the Monumental service. Instead of neglecting the consequences for a healthy company some competition, maybe Redmond should take a step back and say, "Hey, if we announce something as indefinite, perhaps we should not completely change the one thing that people like our service as increasing our operating expenses. "

Microsoft invests more time related to Android, releases its own launcher

Competition is good. If Microsoft wants to end Google Drive, I say go for it. But do not play with your customers along the way. This does not mean a permanent long-term solution to steal market share. In fact, Microsoft did not steal Google's market at all. She just borrowed and quickly decided to turn away. Except, for some reason, you have a strong preference for using Google Docs in Microsoft Word, there is little incentive to subscribe onedrive more.

Microsoft has made much progress lately. Windows 10 is large. The book is flying surface stores. But perhaps his greatest reason, in recent times, it was a supposed concern for the future "cloud-first". This might be true if you are a customer looking for enterprise storage in the cloud for a web platform or thousands of employees. If you are an individual, however, it seems that Microsoft does not mind being in the cloud first.

The service agreement is not exclusive and expressly permits use other services of Yahoo search advertising, including its own service, the services of Microsoft Corporation or other third parties.

The regulatory filing said that Yahoo and Google "according to certain procedures with the Division of United States Department of Justice Antitrust" to revise the agreement "including delaying the implementation of the Agreement on Services States to provide DOJ with a reasonable period of review. "antitrust issues vetoed a previous agreement announced by Google and Yahoo in 2008.

Yahoo, which has just announced quarterly results that fell short of analysts' expectations, said in a press release that the agreement provides Yahoo "more flexibility in choosing providers of search results and ads. The Google It offers complement investigative services provided by Microsoft, which remains a strong partner and own search technology and Yahoo advertising products. "

The offer of Yahoo with Microsoft, which was reached by former CEO Bartz and Steve Ballmer over six years ago, has been reviewed by the Yahoo CEO Marissa Mayer and Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella earlier this year. The review is complete exclusivity agreement between Yahoo and Microsoft on the desktop, allowing Yahoo to explore partnerships with others, too. Mayer was Google CEO before joining Yahoo as CEO.

Google still dominates the search market in the United States, with nearly 64 percent of consultations last month, compared with 20.7 percent for Microsoft and Yahoo at 12.6 percent, according to ComScore's latest data. Yahoo's share dropped significantly since the abolition of the original agreement with Microsoft.

Cutting Jobs, Microsoft Turns Page on Nokia Deal

Cutting Jobs, Microsoft Turns Page on Nokia Deal:




But on Wednesday, the current CEO of Microsoft, Satya Nadella, tried to leave the matter in the past. He announced a major review of the strategy of the telephone company, a change that includes cutting 7,800 jobs up, especially the telephony sector, and the cancellation of almost the entire value of the acquisition of Nokia.
The measure is a clear recognition that the agreement was a strategic mistake of billions by Mr. Ballmer, who was seen as a way to make Microsoft more competitive in the mobile market dominated by Apple, Google and Samsung. Mr. Nadella have hated the acquisition originally, but has publicly supported after becoming CEO.Continue reading the main storyRelated Coverage

"It's a headache that inherited Nadella," Daniel Ives, an analyst at FBR Capital Markets said. "Ballmer really clean up the mess."
The job cuts amount to more than 6 percent of the global workforce Microsoft. Combined with 18,000 job cuts last year, most of them also related to the acquisition of Nokia, Microsoft finally launched a majority of workers who joined the company as a result of the case.
Microsoft said it would take an accounting charge $ 7,600 million related to the acquisition of the Nokia mobile phones. Nokia completed its acquisition last year of $ 9.5 billion, if Nokia came up with about $ 1.5 million in cash as part of the transaction.
While Microsoft is not going to stop making smartphones, Mr. Nadella said Wednesday that no longer focus on the growth of this company, instead emphasizing the expansion of broad "ecosystem" of products, including mobile phones that run Windows software. Since taking Mr. Nadella increased development of applications and services for Google's Android and Apple iOS devices, many of which were popular with the public.
"I am committed to our first part of devices, including phones," Nadella said in an email to employees of Microsoft. "But we must focus our efforts in the short term phone while driving reinvention."
Most recent layoffs will be out of Microsoft's main base near the city, as in Finland, where Nokia originated. Some 25,000 employees joined Microsoft as a result of the case. In late March, Microsoft had more than 118,000 employees worldwide.
The decline in business in smartphones comes as Mr. Nadella, who became CEO last year, Microsoft has pulled out of the initiatives started by Ballmer.
Mr. Nadella sent an email to the entire company in late June to bring all employees for next year. He also warned in the message that Microsoft would have to "make tough decisions in areas where things are not working and solve difficult problems in ways that create value for customers."
Also in June, Microsoft said it sold its business of display advertising to AOL, Microsoft left a company that once had high hopes. In 2012, the company reported how his ambitions were sprayed in the region when it took an accounting charge of $ 6.2 billion in connection with the acquisition of aQuantive, an advertising company online.
