- Online services, including Microsoft 365, Dynamics 365 and Windows 365, affected
- The price of business agreements will be closely aligned with the price of Microsoft.com
- It means that many smaller companies could end up losing their discounts.
Microsoft has revealed that it will change its price approach for online services in business agreements (EAS) in a movement that, according to him, will improve consistency and transparency, but the reality is that many users will end up paying more than they did before.
With prices to be more closely aligned with those published on Microsoft.com, many volume -based discounts could be eliminated.
Online services that include Microsoft 365, Dynamics 365, Windows 365 and security, compliance and identity management products will be affected by the next customer renewals, or when registered for a service they still do not yet.
Microsoft is changing its price approach for online services
“As of November 1, 2025, Microsoft will take the next step to standardize its price approach for online services bought through volume license programs,” the company said in a statement.
“This update is based on the price already in force for services such as Azure and reflects our continuous commitment with greater transparency and alignment in all purchase channels.”
The company pointed out that no changes in software prices could be made in the price, and that education lists throughout the United States and worldwide are excluded from change.
With changes in force as soon as November 2025, depending on customer renovations, many are concerned that this can be a movement designed to bring smaller customers to third -party CSP, and many are likely to pay more as discounts are eliminated.
According Instructions in MicrosoftVolume customers generally received discounts between 6 and 12% in their online services bought through EA before this change was announced.
“Microsoft recommends programming time with your account team or your registered partner to review these changes and evaluate any next renewal or new purchase of online services,” added the company.
