Following our recent article on Microsoft Copilot, the pricing was announced at the Inspire conference on the 18th July 2023 at US$30 per user per month! See the full announcement here : Furthering our AI ambitions – Announcing Bing Chat Enterprise and Microsoft 365 Copilot pricing – The Official Microsoft Blog. This works out at $36,000 per annum per 100 user, $360,000 per annum for 1000 users.
As mentioned in our previous article (https://www.linkedin.com/feed/update/urn:li:activity:7082287632939917312) this will be an add-on license to the M365 E3/E5/Business Standard and Business Premium licensing plans.
The date when this will be generally available is yet to be announced.
The price is a lot higher than The SAM Club expected. Will this price ground Copilot in your plans or do you see the potential for this to fly and get on-board for the potential time savings and productivity benefits?
Will you make it available to all users or just selected “power” users based upon their job function?
Bing Chat Enterprise, which gives organisations AI-powered chat is rolling out in preview now and is included at no additional cost in Microsoft 365 E3, E5, Business Standard and Business Premium. And in the future, it will be available as a stand-alone offering for $5 per user, per month.
We are interested to hear your thoughts. Please contact us at [email protected] with your thoughts that we can share (say if you would like to remain anonymous) or would like to discuss your general licensing management in more detail.
