Microsoft 365 for business

Microsoft 365 for businesses

Word, Teams, email and security in one subscription per user. You get the right licence for the price and a certified Microsoft partner for setup and day-to-day operations.

Microsoft-teknologi
In short

Microsoft 365 is Microsoft's complete cloud platform for businesses, combining the Office applications Word, Excel, PowerPoint and Outlook with Teams, Exchange email, OneDrive and SharePoint in a single per-user subscription.

Businesses choose between three Business licences: Basic (DKK 45.27), Standard (DKK 151.97) and Premium (DKK 206.94 per user per month excl. VAT, as of September 2026), while the Enterprise plans E3 and E5 cover organisations with more than 300 users or special compliance requirements. Business Premium also includes the security tools Microsoft Defender, Intune, Entra ID and Purview, protecting identities, devices and data in one package.

MI Support IT is a certified Microsoft partner helping Danish businesses with licensing advice, setup, migration and day-to-day operations of Microsoft 365. Many companies pay for more or bigger licences than they use, and a licence review typically frees up 15-30% of the cost.

A migration typically takes 2-4 weeks, and the actual move of email and files happens over a weekend, so employees notice the change as little as possible.

The modern workplace

One subscription, one toolbox. Office, Teams, email and files in one place, wherever your people work.

Word, Excel, PowerPoint and Outlook work together with Teams, OneDrive and SharePoint, so documents, meetings and chat live in the same place. That holds whether an employee is at the office, at home or with a customer. You get one toolbox that ties your business together.

Everything is stored in the cloud, so a stolen laptop or a dead hard drive no longer means lost work. Files are shared securely with colleagues and external partners, and you control who can view and edit what. Everyone always works in the latest version of the applications, with no manual updates or new licence purchases every third year.

Security included

Security comes with the package. Business Premium combines protection, MFA and device management in one licence.

With Business Premium you get protection against phishing, ransomware and malware, multi-factor authentication on every account and central management of company PCs and mobiles. Those capabilities used to require three or four separate security products. Now they sit in the same licence as Word and Teams.

It is all managed in the Microsoft 365 Admin Center, where users, licences, policies and security settings are controlled in one place. Very few companies need a full-time Microsoft 365 administrator. So we take the role as your permanent admin, keeping onboarding, offboarding and permissions in order. See Microsoft's Admin Center documentation on Microsoft Learn.

Protect identities and control access

Employees get secure access to the systems they need, with MFA and conditional access rules that stop logins from unknown devices and countries.

Stop threats automatically

Defender detects and stops phishing, ransomware and malware across email and devices before they spread across the network.

Protect sensitive data

Purview classifies personal data and confidential documents so they don't leave the company by mistake.

Windows PCs under control

Encryption, updates and security policies are rolled out to every PC via Intune, so no machine falls behind.

Find risks before they hit

The security reports in Microsoft 365 show weak passwords, missing MFA and unsafe sharing, so you can close the gaps in time.

Copilot-ready

Microsoft 365 is the foundation for Copilot. Licensing and data structure need to be in place before the AI assistant can be rolled out.

Licences

Business Basic, Standard or Premium? How to choose the right licence.

The three Business plans cover the vast majority of Danish businesses. The difference comes down to whether you need the desktop versions of the Office applications, and to the security package, which only comes with Premium. Prices are guide list prices per user per month excl. VAT with annual subscription, as of 1 September 2026.

Device managementNoNoIntune: central management of PCs and mobiles
Best forEmployees without a fixed PC workstation, where price matters mostSmaller companies without special security or compliance requirementsBusinesses with 10-300 users who take security and NIS2 seriously

The rule of thumb is simple: Business Standard is the minimum where people work in Office every day. Business Premium is the right choice for most with 10 users or more, because the security package alone costs more than the price difference if bought separately. Licences can be mixed freely, so production staff run Basic while the administration runs Premium.

The Business plans are capped at 300 users. If you grow past that, or have special requirements for compliance, log retention or telephony, the Enterprise plans E3 and E5 are the next step. The E plans add extended logging, legal hold (eDiscovery) and 100 GB mailboxes, among other things. We advise on when the jump makes sense.

Pricing

What does Microsoft 365 cost? List prices per user, and what really decides the bill.

Guide list prices per user per month (excl. VAT, annual subscription, as of 1 September 2026): Business Basic DKK 45.27, Business Standard DKK 151.97 and Business Premium DKK 206.94. The Enterprise plan E3 sits at approx. DKK 336, and Copilot for Microsoft 365 costs approx. DKK 283 extra per user. Prices follow Microsoft's list prices and are usually adjusted yearly.

List price rarely decides the real cost; the licence mix does. A licence review almost always finds licences for departed employees, duplicates and users on a bigger plan than they use: typically 15-30% of the licence cost. As a certified Microsoft Partner we manage your licences month by month, so you only pay for what you use.

The security package

Four tools, one security package. Defender, Intune, Entra ID and Purview cover devices, identities and data.

Business Premium bundles four security tools that together cover devices, identities and data. We configure and monitor them for our customers:

Microsoft Defender for Business detects and stops ransomware, phishing and malware across email and devices, automatically and without anyone having to step in. Suspicious files are isolated before they spread across the network. Read more about Microsoft Defender.

Microsoft Intune manages all company PCs and mobiles centrally: encryption requirements, updates and apps are rolled out automatically, and a lost device can be remote-wiped in a few clicks. Read more about Microsoft Intune.

Microsoft Entra ID is the identity and access management behind it all: multi-factor authentication, single sign-on and conditional access rules that, for example, block logins from unknown countries. Read more about Microsoft Entra ID.

Microsoft Purview classifies and protects sensitive data, so personal data and business-critical documents don't leave the company by mistake. That is concrete help for your GDPR documentation. Read more about Microsoft Purview.

If you still run an on-premises Active Directory alongside Microsoft 365, Entra Connect synchronises users and passwords to the cloud. When a password has been changed on-premises but does not reach Microsoft 365, you can force a password sync in Entra Connect.

Important: Microsoft 365 is not a backup. Microsoft runs the platform, but responsibility for your data is your own. Deleted emails and files can typically only be restored for 30-93 days. See backup solutions for Microsoft 365.

Migrating to Microsoft 365. Five steps from decision to go-live, typically in 2-4 weeks.

A migration to Microsoft 365 typically takes 2-4 weeks from decision to go-live. We schedule the actual move of email and files over a weekend, so employees notice the change as little as possible. The process is the same whether you come from an on-premises server, Google Workspace or another Microsoft partner:

    Plan and timeline

    You get a concrete migration plan with dates, responsibilities and clear communication to employees about what happens when.

  3. 3

    Tenant and security setup

    Your Microsoft 365 environment is created and hardened: MFA, Defender, Intune policies and access rules are in place before the first user moves in.

  4. 4

    Migration of email and data

    Email, calendars and files are synchronised in the background and cut over during a weekend. Monday morning everyone logs in as usual.

  5. 5

    Go-live, training and support

    The first days come with extended support: we train employees in Teams and OneDrive and follow up to make sure everything works.

AI in your workday

Copilot works inside your applications. Drafts, meeting notes and analysis directly in Word, Outlook and Teams.

Copilot is Microsoft's AI assistant, built directly into Word, Excel, Outlook and Teams: it drafts documents, summarises long email threads, analyses spreadsheets and writes up your meeting notes. Copilot requires a Microsoft 365 licence underneath and costs approx. DKK 283 per user per month on top.

Copilot sees everything the user has access to. That is why cleaning up permissions and data structure is the most important step before you roll it out. We help with both the preparation and the rollout. What is Copilot? See the glossary entry.

Questions about Microsoft 365. Office 365 vs Microsoft 365, pricing, backup, switching partner and migration.

None in practice: Microsoft renamed Office 365 to Microsoft 365 in April 2020. Alongside the Office applications, Microsoft 365 also bundles security (Defender, Intune, Entra ID) and device management into one licence. If you are still paying for an old Office 365 plan, switching can often give you more features for the same price.

Yes. Your Microsoft 365 tenant, licences and data belong to your business, not to the IT partner. A partner switch is an administrative handover that typically takes 5-10 working days. Email, files and Teams keep running unchanged, so employees notice the change as little as possible.

With Business Standard approx. DKK 3,800 per month (approx. DKK 45,600 per year), and with Business Premium including the security package approx. DKK 5,175 per month (approx. DKK 62,100 per year). These are guide list prices excl. VAT with annual subscription, as of 1 September 2026. Licences can be mixed, so all 25 don't need the same plan.

No. Microsoft guarantees the operation of the platform, but responsibility for your data is your own (the shared responsibility model). Deleted emails and files can typically only be restored for 30-93 days. We always recommend a separate backup solution for Microsoft 365, see the backup solutions page.

Typically 2-4 weeks from decision to go-live for a company with 10-50 users. The actual move of email and files usually happens over a weekend. You start Monday morning in Microsoft 365, and employees notice the change as little as possible.

Licences and adoption

Getting enough out of your licence? Setup, governance and adoption, so your business uses what it pays for.

Many companies use only a fraction of what they already pay for. You get a review of licences, permissions and setup, and a plan for what to put into use.
