Are Microsoft E5 Licensing Add-Ons a Good Deal?

Microsoft E5 Security for Microsoft 365 Business Premium

The Microsoft E5 Security add-on is available for Microsoft 365 Business Premium (and other) tenants. The add-on looks like a bargain because the bundle offers significant value over individual licenses, but is it really? Like everything in life, unless you can use something, there’s no point in having it. In this case, have a plan to use E5 Security to deliver measurable results before you hand over any more license revenue to Microsoft.

Microsoft 365 Business Premium Tenants Get Azure Active Directory Premium P1

Microsoft 365 Business Premium customers will benefit from the provision of Azure Active Directory P1 Premium licenses. All good, but what about the Office 365 E3 tenants who pay the same monthly fee? Many enterprise tenants could use the features licensed by Azure Active Directory Premium P1, but they’ll have to pay $6/user/month to get the same benefit.
