Office 365 users versus email accounts

@alexntg Oh, so if I drop down from E3 to ProPlus, I loose the online stuff?
If you drop a user from E3 to ProPlus without EOP1 or E1, that user would only have access to the Office ProPlus install, no other services.
-
So weird...that is my only downgrade available. http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/business/office-365-proplus-business-software-FX103213513.aspx
My choices when I click on purchase services (aside from all the other add-on offers:
O365 E3 Trial $20/mth
O365 E4 $22/mth
O365 ProPlus $12/mth -

@alexntg Correct but those don't come with software.
O365PP looks really close to O365 Small business premium (which is not on the list).

Small business is a different tenant type, not part of the enterprise plans.
-
@alexntg Yeah...I finally figured that out. Man they sure have a ton of SKUs
-
Waiting to hear from Chris at Microsoft. Since O365 PP is a enterprise offering, according to the website it looks just like O365 small business premium.

Office ProPlus isn't the same as 365 Small Business. Small business includes Exchange, Lync, and SharePoint.
-
@alexntg That is what I needed to hear, O365 ProPlus has no Exchange, no SharePoint but according to the website, http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/business/office-365-proplus-business-software-FX103213513.aspx it had Lync.
I will just keep E3 so I don't have to change anything.

I really hate plans. Especially Microsoft ones. Why can't everything just be à la carte? It's the one area where I really prefer Google.

Everything is available a la carte with Microsoft. If you wanted to pick up Exchange, SharePoint, and Office, but not Lync, you can. Much like a combo meal at a fast food place, it'll cost you more individually, but it's completely doable.

Sometimes it works in your favor. For my personal domain, I ran EOP1 and Office ProPlus, for $16 per month. It was cheaper than E3, and made sense because I wasn't using Lync or SharePoint.
-
Well I started using SharePoint, but because of OneDrive for Business. And that is where my data is as well as my OneNote Notebooks.
-
Yeah, the combo thing is weird. I still do not know what plan gets OneDrive for Business or Sharepoint aside from E3 and E4

But.... Office 365 is a la carte and Google Apps is not. I'm confused

You hate that they save you money?

All E plans have Sharepoint. And OneDrive is just part of Sharepoint. Or any Sharepoint plan.
-
Ah ha...well finally the answer, I need E3! Thank you!

We use E3 and love it.
