Does anyone use an iPad - I am wondering what is the best option for notetaking? We use AI but I also like to take some handwritten notes as well. If you've found any other helpful things with work productivity using the iPad - would love to hear!

What company/product do you use for email retention (compliance purposes) for an RIA that uses Microsoft 365 for Emails?

Hi -- we are a 4 person office atm, but growing. We are using godaddy for our M365 subscriptions. They are a hot mess when anything goes wrong - and we are interested in getting off their platform. This will involve defederating and then figuring out if we self manage subscriptions and storage/backup. I am debating between hiring a CSP or doing this myself. I've identified one CSP but would like alternatives to review and don't find any that seem reliable. Any recommendations or experiences to share?

Are other RIAs doing anything for Employees for 1, 2, 3, and 4 Year Anniversaries and for the Milestone Anniversaries of 5, 10, 15, 20 and 25 years

We are contemplating moving to an unlimited vacation policy as well as adding in a remote work component. Has anyone done this or have experience in it? Our Advisors operate this way now; however, the operations staff does not. The research says it's a positive for everyone. I would like to get real work information from someone. For example: a daughter/son is having a baby and the grandparent wants to either take time off or work remote. What things should we look at for policies? Does anyone have experience in this really working? Any guidance is appreciated. Thank you.
