Can I mix and match different Microsoft 365 plans?

Our Microsoft 365 for business base plans (charged per user) are designed for organizations with up to 300 users. Organizations with more than 300 users should consider subscribing to Microsoft 365 for enterprise plans. We reserve the right to enforce a tenant limit of 300 provisioned licenses across the family of business plans, in which case we will provide advance notice and further guidance. In the meantime, we are treating customers that have provisioned up to 300 licenses of each individual business plan (Microsoft 365 Business Basic, Business Standard, Business Premium) as compliant with this 300-seat limit. This applies even if they have provisioned more than 300 total licenses across the family of business plans.

Do you offer volume discounts?

Discounts are available for enterprise agreement customers (typically 250+ licenses) who want to purchase through volume licensing. A Microsoft expert can help you explore the purchasing options for large organizations and help you determine which is best for you.

Many customers purchase a Microsoft 365 base subscription and then, depending on their needs, may choose to buy any number of add-on services to round out their implementation. Additionally, customers may choose to purchase apps from one of the thousands of vendors available in the Microsoft 365 store.
