It may not even be them being cheap, just that most people/organisations not directly tech-focused simply aren’t inclined to update software. Like wearing clothing until it starts to fall apart. That trend is another nail in the coffin

    To be honest offline Office 2016 is a solid product and the desktop software is still more snappy and capable than the online counterparts. If you don't need collaboration and online integration there's little reason to go subscription based. I can understand that small companies make that decision. After all it is just a tool and not a goal in itself.
