You don't need SharePoint. I would say its the first toe in the water for MS re Software as a Service.

ROTFL. Marketing material is aimed at folks who don't have a clue, but control the purse strings (how scary is THAT!!!). Big action words to make you visualize your company earning a billion bucks a week after buying the product. Nothing whatsoever as to what it actually does. I can't even read the stuff, it simply does not make any sense to me. John W.

Since it's built on the SharePoint platform, I'm wondering if you have to actually have SharePoint to use it? If so, I don't see the point of Life Office -- seems redundant. However, if it allows you to exploit SP without actually have it, then I can see its use.
