Frequently Asked Questions
Which add-on gives the biggest single-product impact?
M365 Copilot for productivity, Defender for Endpoint P2 for security, Intune Suite for device management. Pick based on what's currently the biggest pain — Copilot helps everyone, but security add-ons prevent expensive incidents.
Is Teams Premium worth it?
Yes if you run customer-facing webinars, sensitive meetings, or large town halls. It adds intelligent recap (Copilot summaries), watermarks, advanced webinars, and meeting templates. Skip it if your meetings are mostly internal stand-ups.
Do these add-ons stack with E3 or E5?
Yes. Add-ons are SKUs you assign on top of a base licence. Some features overlap with E5 (e.g., Defender for Endpoint P2 is in E5, so you wouldn't add it again). Always check what's already in your base before adding.
What's new in Intune Suite?
Intune Suite bundles Remote Help, Endpoint Privilege Management, Microsoft Tunnel for MAM, Advanced Endpoint Analytics, and Specialty Device Management — solutions IT teams used to buy separately or build themselves.
