Commercial transition
Who is affected
Microsoft 365 E3 customers seeking advanced identity, endpoint or email protection without committing to Microsoft 365 E5 or the Defender and Purview suites.
Action required
Match the exact add-on to the qualifying base licence and verify the applicable CSP offer and regional price rather than inferring an unstated universal amount.
Evidence boundary
The cross-channel pricing statement applies only to the three named add-on offers. Microsoft does not publish a universal absolute price here or extend the claim to unrelated security products.
Timeline
- CSP price update published
Microsoft named the three available add-ons and described consistent pricing across EA and CSP.
