Microsoft is updating the names of its Office 365 subscriptions for small and medium businesses (SMBs). There are no price, feature, or business model changes to your subscriptions. Effective April 21st you’ll see the following name changes on the 2.0 Platform to stay in alignment with this update:
- Office 365 Business Essentials will become Microsoft 365 Business Basic
- Office 365 Business Premium will become Microsoft 365 Business Standard
- Microsoft 365 Business will become Microsoft 365 Business Premium
- Standalone commercial desktop client subscriptions will become “Microsoft 365 Apps” subscriptions. This includes Office 365 Business and Office 365 ProPlus.
Again, this is simply a Microsoft name change, there will be no price, feature, or business model changes to your subscriptions at this time. For more in-depth details, please visit https://www.microsoft.com/microsoft-365/partners/smb-sku-rename
