Three plans cover almost every institution
Prices are Microsoft's list prices, per user per month, paid yearly, for organizations up to 300 users. Buying through ABT costs the same as buying direct.
- Desktop, web and mobile Office apps
- Custom business email and 1 TB storage per user
- Teams chat, calling, meetings and webinars
- Copilot in Word, Excel, PowerPoint and Outlook
- Spam and malware filtering
- Device management and security with Intune
- Advanced protection against phishing and malware
- Conditional access and Entra ID P1
- Data protection and sensitivity labelling
- The baseline most examiners expect to see
- Entra ID P2, which is what makes risk based access work
- Defender for Identity and Defender for Endpoint Plan 2
- Defender for Office 365 Plan 2 and Defender for Cloud Apps
- Privileged Identity Management, so admin rights are not standing
- Turns on two access policies Premium alone cannot enforce
A hardened tenant
Guardian Foundation is included at no extra charge on every plan. We configure the tenant to our security baseline rather than handing you the defaults.
Security Insights
A recurring report your executives and examiners can actually read, showing what your Microsoft 365 security posture looks like and what moved.
Tier 1, direct
We buy your licenses straight from Microsoft rather than through a distributor, which is also how we get direct escalation when something breaks.
Built for your exam
We manage Microsoft 365 for 750+ financial institutions, so the configuration is mapped to the rules you are examined against, not to a generic template.
Smaller plans and add-ons
Most institutions land on one of the three above. These cover the edges.

Tell us the seat count and we will price it
A licensing specialist confirms the plan mix, checks whether your current tenant is leaving money on the table, and sends the numbers back. No obligation, and nothing changes in your tenant.
What buyers ask us first
Not sure which plan you are on today?
Most institutions we talk to are paying for seats nobody uses, or are missing a control they assume they already have. A licensing specialist will tell you which, in about twenty minutes, whether or not you buy anything.
