    Not updating to Microsoft 365 (M365) results in a range of risks, including

    1. Security Vulnerabilities: Older versions lack the latest security patches, making them susceptible to cyber-attacks and data breaches.
    2. Compliance Issues: Outdated software may not meet current regulatory requirements, risking legal and financial penalties.
    3. Reduced Productivity: Missing out on new features and improvements can hinder employee efficiency and collaboration.
    4. Compatibility Problems: Incompatibility with newer applications and services can disrupt business operations.
    5. Lack of Support: End of support for older versions means no technical assistance, leaving issues unresolved.
