Any reason to go with Office365 over Google Apps?

You can get MS Office Subscription software for each user through Office 365.

Ah email retention. Make sure you have a written policy in place for how long you plan to retain and backup email for. (One of the things I used to write for clients). Obviously if you are a law/CPA firm, there are guidelines for document and communication retention, but your average business should also have this in place to say 'this is our policy'. Then stick to it. If you keep email for 6 months, make sure everything is deleted after then.

You get the office suite of products with the subscription, probably the biggest feature. Office365 also gives you 50gb of email, and I think Google is 30Gb, not that it matters that much.

We actually have both at our shop, and O365 is much faster syncing to Outlook than Gmail, but that is probably expected.
