Microsoft announces increase of 20% in monthly subscriptions costs for Office 365 licensing

Microsoft has recently revealed that monthly subscription costs for Office 365 licensing will increase by 20% from July this year. 

So, what exactly has been announced by Microsoft in simple terms? 

As of July 2022, all existing Cloud Service Provider seat-based subscriptions will need to be renewed in the new commerce which will mean that the monthly term offers will go back to being priced at a premium, leading to an extra cost for your business going forwards. 

So, what do I do if my business is impacted by this increased cost? 

The best action that your small and medium sized business can take will be to talk to Advantage asap to review your Office 365 New Commerce migration options in order to avoid being impacted by the 20% increase in monthly charges.
