But I feel that the product line was unnecessarily complex, and its on-premises approach to tech infrastructure - with multiple, locally installed servers - is out of touch with the realities of today’s highly mobile and highly connected world. Microsoft’s partners aren’t happy with the retirement of SBS Standard, since it was such a clear and consistent source of revenue for so long. This year, Microsoft killed off all three of these products (as well as the unrelated Windows SBS 2011 Standard offering) and is replacing them with a single new low-end server called Windows Server 2012 Essentials.
