Meet Microsoft 365, a new bundle offering for the enterprise combining Windows, Office and EMS

At Inspire, Microsoft today announced Microsoft 365, a new bundle offering that brings together Office 365, Windows 10 and Enterprise Mobility + Security offerings from Microsoft. With more than 100 million commercial monthly active users of Office 365, and more than 500 million Windows 10 devices in use, Microsoft is trying to combine their products and services into a single holistic solution to help organisations succeed. Microsoft 365 will be offered in two variants: Microsoft 365 Enterprise and Microsoft 365 Business.

Microsoft 365 Enterprise is for large organizations and integrates Office 365 Enterprise, Windows 10 Enterprise and Enterprise Mobility + Security. Microsoft 365 Enterprise is offered in two plans—Microsoft 365 E3 and Microsoft 365 E5. Both are available for purchase on August 1, 2017. Microsoft 365 Enterprise will replace Secure Productive Enterprise offering which Microsoft announced last year.

Microsoft 365 Business is designed for small-to-medium sized businesses with up to 300 users and integrates Office 365 Business Premium with tailored security and management features from Windows 10 and Enterprise Mobility + Security. Microsoft 365 Business will be available in public preview on August 2, 2017. It will become generally available on a worldwide basis in the fall of 2017, priced at US $20 per user, per month.
