Microsoft teams forms10/12/2023 ![]() What all this means is that new enterprise customers that sign up for Microsoft Office and who also want Teams, will pay more from October 1. Microsoft defines an enterprise customer as one with more than 300 individual users. But only larger “enterprise” customers will be able to buy Teams as a standalone product. So effectively, customers that have Teams as part of their Microsoft 365 or Office 365 subscription, but use Slack or a combination of third-party tools to collaborate and communicate with each other, can lower their monthly outlay to Microsoft. These customers won’t be able to subscribe to a separate, standalone Teams plan. For customers on one of its small business or frontline worker plans, Microsoft said it will continue to bundle Teams with its broader software suite, but will also offer them a plan that comes without Teams for a lower price (this price varies depending on the precise product and country where it’s offered). Or they can choose to downgrade to the cheaper plan without Teams. Existing customers on an enterprise subscription can remain on their current plan - replete with Teams - if they wish. Now, this is where things get a little complicated. ![]() Separately, Microsoft will offer Teams as a standalone product costing €5 per month, but only to new customers. Enterprise customers in the European Economic Area ( EEA), which constitutes Switzerland and the 27 European Union (EU) members plus Iceland, Liechtenstein and Norway, will be able to purchase a Microsoft 365 or Office 365 subscription without Teams included, and will be charged at €2 per month less than before. The changes are effective from October 1 (a month from now), and come in various forms depending on the customer. Microsoft has announced that it will unbundle its Teams business collaboration software from its broader Office suite, following growing regulatory scrutiny and a complaint filed by rival Slack.
