Recommendation: This tier is our go-to recommendation for our clients. Prior to Business Premium, you would have to spend around $40 per user/per month to get the same level of functionality that this plan offers. Business Premium is the priciest Microsoft 365 plan, but it is made palatable by being the best value. You’re getting everything from the previous tiers, plus a whole host of advanced security tools and features such as Mobile Device Management (MDM), Azure Active Directory P1, and Microsoft Defender. In today’s cyber threat landscape, business with any security obligations or that work with valuable data need security features beyond what is included with this plan.Ĭost: $12.50 per user/per month (up to 300 users)īusiness Premium’s tagline, “One solution to run your business securely from anywhere”, sums up it’s value nicely. Business that are just starting out or that have an extremely limited IT footprint (work only with SaaS tools) may consider Business Standard as a good starting out point. Recommendation: Business Standard will give you everything you need to work efficiently, but not securely. The area where this plan falls short is in it’s security capabilities. Business Standard includes some additional productivity features beyond what the lower-tier plans offer like being able to work across multiple devices and some basic automation features. Microsoft 365 Business Standard can be thought of as a combination of the two previous plans – the applications you need to work supported by the services that enable effective communication and collaboration both internally and externally. This tier is not recommended for any professional organization as it offers limited productivity and security functionality.Ĭost: $6 per user/per month (up to 300 users) Recommendation: Business Basic is acceptable for a home-based or hobby business that only desires email hosting and file storage. The web version of those applications are pared down and have less features than the application version. Business Basic gives you access to the web version of Word, Excel, and PowerPoint. You can have host a single email domain (with limited storage), chat, video conference, and get cloud-based file storage. Microsoft 365 Business Basic provides bare-bones collaboration and communication capabilities to your organization. This plan would require you to piecemeal it with other services to have a fully-functional channel for productivity, collaboration, and communication which is rarely the ideal option.Ĭost: $8.25 per user/per month (up to 300 users) Recommendation: This plan is not recommended for any business as it only provides you with a few productivity applications and nothing else. An example that will illustrate what this plan is about – you will get access to the Outlook desktop application, but you won’t get email hosting or storage. It provides you only with Microsoft’s core productivity applications, but limited-to-none collaboration and communication capabilities. This plan is exactly what it sounds like.
