So I have had this going for about 4 months now and I have to say I am pretty impressed with the amount of features you get and the ease of use creating public facing sites with SP2013 O365. It allowed me to have my entire site up in minutes, as opposed to hours of writing some php, css, javascript, or html. What does everyone else think of it?Â
Here is a pic of the Central admin you get, which is stripped down.

For Small business, it’s fine! However I still encourage people to go on-premise (I like my job :P).
I do like the O365 implementation. We are doing the same, I suppose I still like having full control, but you are right. O365 makes it very easy for a company to have an integrated public facing website very quickly.
I havent investigated the workflow side of things, but im guessing you can plumb it into your internal services with single sign on?
