Microsoft store on corporate PC

Summary

 Should you allow your staff to install the Microsoft store version of software on their corporate computers

 

My thoughts

 Given the Working from home and other flexible options now available to most knowledge workers, what's the issue with allowing the Microsoft store software installers.

This saves building a SCCM packages and deploying via some rando schedule or trickle feed to a users computer.

Then the package goes out of date as a new version is released, or some random thing happens

 

This way Microsoft tech support could actually be on the hook to make sure these install, rather than an over worked support guy
