Hi,
We have an access database that is mission critical to our small business. We use to track orders etc. It has been stored on Dropbox for over a year which has worked fine as only 1 person has been accessing it. Unfortunately we now have a few employees and need to move to a solution that offers multi-user access locally on-premise and remotely via the web (as Dropbox offers).
Does anyone have any recommendations as to the best option?
I imagine, as an existing Office 365 E3 customer, the best solution is to publish it to Office 365 but are there any pitfalls to avoid (the database was written by me but it does include macros/vb etc) as I have never done this before. Specifically I am worried about loss of functionality.
Other solutions I have considered are introducing a file server on premise (more cost), introducing an AWS (we are existing AWS customers) File server (costs) or maybe using AWS Workspaces but ultimately I want to minimise any costs and as a 365 user I would like to see if this is suitable.
Thanks
