What is your experience regarding pricing and costs for Microsoft 365 Business?

The cost is not perfect. I rate the cost as seven out of ten. It could be more affordable.

The solution's pricing is reasonable and provides value for money. The solution costs approximately $20 per month per user.

My company places emphasis on the different licenses purchased. The company has P1 and P2 licenses from Microsoft. For certain tasks, you need a Microsoft license. There are additional costs attached to the licensing part so that one can receive additional services like support from Microsoft. In general, the product offers different licenses at different prices based on which users have to determine the features they want in the product. My company has P1 and P2 licenses from Microsoft.

We have used Microsoft 365 Business for a few users, so the price is minimal for the service we are getting. However, Google provides Google Cloud Platform for free to universities, and I have been part of three universities where it is being used. Earlier, it had unlimited data storage, but now it is limited to 15 GB per user. Even though, in terms of usage, it is still better than Office 365.

The base price is reasonable, but when it comes to the specialized tools for servers, the cost can become quite high.

We pay a monthly licensing fee for Microsoft 365 Business. The solution's pricing could be made better.

The product is expensive.

The product’s price could be improved. There are additional costs involved apart from standard licenses.

There would be licensing costs because Microsoft 365 Business requires a product key and a license to be present in order to use its products, including Excel and other supportive products.

The product is expensive and the licensing costs are yearly.

You need to purchase the license.

The licensing of the solution is monthly.

The price of the license for Microsoft 365 Business can be expensive for smaller businesses and should be adjusted. The overall pricing model can be improved upon.

Pricing is something they could improve in general. Licensing fees are paid annually.

Our IT department takes care of licensing and I'm not sure how that works.

The organization is responsible for the license.

I can't speak to the exact cost of the solution, however, the pricing seems to be fine.

The pricing is very reasonable. It's not overly expensive.

I have not handled anything related to costs. I don't handle the licensing aspect of the solution. Therefore, I cannot speak to how much the company pays in order to use the product.

The pricing varies according to which tier you are on. For Business Basic, the pricing is okay, however, for Business Standard or Premium, it's a little bit expensive. Our company purchases licenses on a yearly basis.

License fees can be paid monthly or annually and there are no extra costs involved. Licensing is reasonable and is on a tiered system so you can select what you want. In that respect, the license is scalable and it works well for some of our smaller clients who don't need all the features.

I don't have any information on the pricing. I do not administer the license, that falls with the CFO.

I find the pricing of Microsoft 365 Business to be reasonable. With the other products such as SQL database, they are expensive. There is a free license with Microsoft, which is the SQL Express. But it would be better if they could improve, or make adjustments to have higher limitations. The Express is limited based on the capacity of the memory and processor. If my requirements go beyond those limitations then I have to go to the standard edition, which is very expensive. I would like to see adjustments made to the limitations in SQL Express. It would be very helpful.

The solution is expensive. Basic support comes free with the regular subscription but the premier support cost extra.

We do need to pay a licensing fee, however, I'm unsure as to what the exact cost is or if the fees are paid monthly or annually.

There is an annual license required for this solution. For a smaller organization, it could be expensive.

We are on an annual license for the solution. The solution could be cheaper overall.

Our licensing is annual. We have a Volume Licensing deal with them.

Pricing can always be improved.

The licensing cost is reasonable.

Licensing is on a monthly basis.

We pay a yearly licensing fee to Microsoft. I cannot speak to the exact cost.

The pricing is average, however, every product is expensive. We'd like it to be less, of course. There aren't operational costs over and above the licensing, however, there are a few costs here and there that are extra - such as implementation costs and some special requirement costs.

I think that the price is fair. You can pay it quarterly, half-yearly, or yearly, depending on how many users you have and your turnover. I think we have been doing it every six months.

The licensing could be better. It's a bit costly. We pay the license on a yearly basis.

I have no issues with the pricing and licensing is on a yearly basis.

I am not aware of what we pay at this time.

It has a subscription-based model, so we need to procure as many licenses as required as part of an enterprise agreement. It is a little bit expensive. It is definitely a bit more expensive than other solutions that are on-premises. It is also expensive as compared to the cloud-based solutions from other companies. However, when we look at the ease of use of the product and the adoption by the users, its cost can definitely be considered as comparable to other products. The features that we get in this solution are not available in solutions from its competitors.

Its price is what you would expect today from a software-as-a-service offering. It is somewhere around $10 per user per month.

The license is billed on a yearly basis. I am not aware of the cost, but it is definitely not cheap.

We have an enterprise license, and we get some price off for that. Its price could be better for companies that are not using it massively.

Licensing is on a yearly basis. Its price could be better.

As a customer, I would like the licensing fees should be cheaper.

The cost of the subscription is fair.

Its cost is fine because I have a lot of devices in my account.

I have heard the solution is a little expensive and there is a licence needed.

I don't pay for the solution directly. Likely, my employer does. I don't deal with the pricing or licensing aspects of the solution.

It could be cheaper. Its licensing is on a yearly basis.

The solution could be cheaper and more reasonably priced. We pay for our licenses on a yearly basis.

It's pretty difficult to make a cost estimation, in cases where we need additional features. It might be out of the budget, and sometimes the extra price can surprise you. I think predictability in terms of costs. Overall it could be cheaper, as many times the additional features cost a lot and we are thinking twice about using them.

It's competitively priced compered to what you get.

We pay a licensing fee. I can't say if it is expensive or not as I've never looked at other products to compare services and pricing.

We pay a license fee in order to have this solution, however, that is handled by corporate. I don't know how many licenses we have on hand or how much we pay to Microsoft.

It is probably not cheap, but you can't really compare it with anything else.

There is a licensing cost, but considering the features that it's equipped with, it's not that expensive.

We pay for a corporation license.

There is a licensing fee that is quite expensive. However, the solution is useful and the price is equal to the value.

It is a fair price but sometimes the licensing can be quite complex. In that case you have to fly in a license expert, but I think for small businesses it's very cost efficient. It would be beneficial if was be a non-profit license model for healthcare organizations. In this case, they tend to just use a limited amount of functionality in the Microsoft 365 because of the pricing.

It's an expensive solution.

This is an expensive product because it is subscription-based, which is always more expensive than a perpetual license.

It is slightly expensive, but it doesn't have any hidden costs. You know what you're going to spend, and you get a decent ROI on it. It has subscription-based licensing. It helps you to figure out the amount of money that you would spend based on how many mailboxes you would require in a year, which makes it better as compared to a mail server for which you need to consider the licensing cost and the maintenance cost.

We pay regular licensing fees to continue using Microsoft 365 Business.

It is expensive, and its price can be better.

They are always a bit pricey. They should reduce their prices or make it free because we already have other solutions, like Google Suite, which are cheaper or free.

Microsoft 365 Business will be good to have if you have a large organization where you have more than 3000 employees. Other cheaper solutions, like Gmail, are easily available in the market.

The price just keeps going up and it never comes down, but the service that you receive with the support is worth it. It works out to be $12.50 per user per month. For us, it will cost approximately $50.00 for four users per month. This doesn't include the cost for other licensing on other app subscriptions.

The pricing for the product is a bit of a tricky question. In terms of the total cost of ownership, I can say that it is expensive. It is a fair price, but in our country or another country with economies similar to Mozambique, the pricing structure may be a little high and prohibitive. The first issue is the volatility of the exchange rate because our currency, the Metical, is very volatile related to the dollar. The problem here is the customer has an agreement and when he realized that he wants to add some other applications or services or something else, he has the expectation of price based on what he signed on the first agreement. But when he sees the new price, it could become a lot higher than expected because of the exchange rate. It would be nice if somehow Microsoft had some flexibility with the initial agreement so that pricing would not fluctuate dramatically because of the exchange rate. Another thing that factors into the pricing is that the Internet connection and Internet bandwidth is still very expensive here in Mozambique. So it is not always an easy decision to make the migration to Office 365 due to these two variables.

The cost the impact is low for us due to the fact that we now pay annually instead of having the same license. We've saved a bit of money, switching over to Microsoft. I'm not sure of the exact pricing, as my colleague handled the payments. However, I do know the licensing process is a bit complex and could be simplified.

For the standard plan, the cost is USD $12.50 per month, committed annually. There are often discounts offered versus month to month.

We do monthly billing, however, I'm not sure what the exact costs are. We may pay around $1,000/month. We started using the Microsoft Teams and we've started doing the conference call feature, so that's another $4 an account and we have a few accounts using that right now.

Compared to buying a license, it is much cheaper and a good buy.

We are Microsoft partners so it doesn't cost us anything.

The solution is quite expensive and gets more expensive if you have to scale.

After the last update that was made, you are not obliged to take the same license for all of your users. For example, if you go for E1 it is $12 USD per month for every person. Now you can select different licenses, for example, if somebody doesn't need all of the features, it would cost $8 USD per month and if they didn't need the email application then it would cost $6 USD per month.

The cost benefit is well worth it. Support is effective.

It is a reasonable and acceptable value for the utility and functions that it incorporates.
