Just when you thought things couldn’t get more confusing…
Due to the popularity of the various Office 365 plans, Microsoft have now decided to licence the Windows application in a similar monthly subscription too. Like the Office 365 subscriptions, this also gives you Software Assurance (ensuring you always have the latest and greatest version). It also makes the auditing process around Microsoft licencing a lot simpler than it was previously.
Microsoft 365
Microsoft 365 includes all the benefits of Office 365, Windows Enterprise licence, Intune, SCCM (System Centre Configuration Manager), ATP (Advanced Threat protection), Power BI, Security and Compliance to name a few.
