A lot of business use Office 365 and really don't have problems with that. If you are using any of the Office applications editing can be done live and concurrently shared and you can even see where each person is in the document. This applies to Google Suite too btw.

That can be annoying. However you can actually map OneDrive to a drive letter and SharePoint document libraries can be sync'd with local folder locations allowing applications that only accept local folders as data locations.
Realistically the software you are running is the largest factor to if you can use Office 365 etc or not, they can be made to work with what you have but I get your concerns and you also need somewhere to host those applications as well. Moving to cloud hosted/SaaS products isn't really an appropriate suggestion either, maybe something to think about long term though. Although I loath ongoing subscription licensing.

How suitable is it though for hosting a server or NAS? Since you mention other software requirements based on that I would not recommend a Synology/QNAP etc NAS and go with a basic Windows server with backups to something like Backblaze. For remote access setup a VPN running on your local firewall.
