Upcoming Teams Premium launch!

[v-jillarmour]

We are pleased to introduce the new add-on availability of Microsoft Teams Premium beginning February 1, 2023. Teams Premium helps make meetings more personalized, intelligent, and protected. The new offer includes premium value for Teams meetings that allows organizations the ability to manage advanced virtual appointments, webinars, and use time-saving meeting solutions with one offering.

Pricing:

Teams Premium will launch on February 1, 2023 with an introductory price of $7 USD ERP/user/month available through June 30, 2023. Teams Premium prices will increase to standard pricing for new customers on July 1, 2023, upon the end of the introductory pricing period.

	Introductory price February 1-June 30, 2023	Standard price Beginning July 1, 2023
Microsoft Teams Premium1,2	$7/u/m USD ERP	$10/u/m USD ERP

¹VL customers as of June 30, 2023, can continue to add new licenses throughout the duration of their current enrollment at their negotiated Microsoft Teams Premium prices.

²Introductory pricing for Teams Premium will not be reflected on the January 1 pricelist preview, but will be updated at launch on the February 1 pricelist.

Please be advised of the following when transacting Teams Premium with introductory pricing:

• Customers must purchase Teams Premium prior to July 1, 2023, to receive introductory pricing.
• Add the introductory price (or price negotiated based on the introductory price) to the Future Pricing Table (FPT) to ensure additional seats can be added at that price and (for EAS specifically) that pricing for existing seats is not automatically increased on July 1, 2023.
• Upon the next renewal on or after July 1, 2023, customers will need to move to standard pricing (or price negotiated based on the standard price).
• Avoid selling small quantities just to lock the introductory price. Customers should be sold on the product value and the license quantity should reflect the user population for which they intend to deploy the product.
