Our experience was that if you're a heavy Microsoft shop, with Outlook available for every user, it seems to work pretty well. The limitations you have with a local Exchange server still apply, but it should meet your needs.

If you have non-Outlook users, users with large mailboxes (50GB+), or both, you may have issues.

Also, upgrades between Waves may introduce problems, so you may have a working system on Wave X that has different problems when Wave X+1 comes out.

A bit of experience here. I migrated my last place from local exchange

a pretty painless process.
At my current job, I migrated from on-prem exchange to RackSpace Hosted
exchange because the uptime was supposed to be guaranteed at 100% (yes,
that's there actual SLA) and I had a lot of positive experiences with
them in the past. However, they've been down more times than our on-prem
server was. Now we're strongly considering moving from RackSpace to
Office365.

    I helped one company move from godaddy to o365. It was great.
    I've helped 3-4 other startups start out on o365. I would say also,
    it was great.

    The main question that's missing from your question is - compared to
    what? I think if you want something valuable here, you'll have to
    ask how does o365 compare to Google Apps? How does it compare to
    in-house exchange? How does it compare to other cloud exchange
    hosting providers?

    All of those are big questions, with big answers. I think you'll get
    a lot of feedback if you make the question go along those lines...
