I'm fairly new to the office 365 administration and have been looking for a book to give me an edge. Based on my friend's recommendation, I purchased this book. I've learned a lot on how to use PowerShell to automate most of my daily tasks. The content is comprehensive and clear. The examples are very practical and easy to follow. The chapter on certificate management helped me to resolve my challenge with SAML rollover key.

This book is very elementary in showing Powershell scripts for O365 Administration. It spends a lot of words talking about theory and background information but not much time showing actual Powershell scripts. It appears to be written for the beginning O365 Administrator, so for an intermediate level Admin it is NOT Very useful. It shows very basic steps like creating a mailbox, applying an O365 license, setting some basic parameters, etc. I was hoping for a book full of Powershell script examples for the Exchange Online, O365 Groups, Mailbox and Shared Mailbox administration but this book is not it. In my opinion, not worth the cost so I returned it.
