Frequently Asked Questions

How do I know if I’m overpaying for Microsoft 365 licenses?

You may be overpaying if users have licenses they do not use, inactive accounts still have paid licenses, or employees are assigned plans above what their roles require.

ProArch reviews usage, roles, costs, and renewal terms to identify where Microsoft 365 spend can be reduced.

What is a Microsoft 365 licensing assessment?

A Microsoft 365 licensing assessment reviews your licenses, users, usage, renewal dates, security needs, and future Microsoft roadmap.

ProArch uses the assessment to identify unused licenses, mismatched plans, cost-saving opportunities, and areas where Microsoft-native tools may replace overlapping third-party products.

When should I review my Microsoft 365 licenses before renewal?

Review Microsoft 365 licenses well before your renewal date so you have time to remove unused licenses, compare plan options, and adjust commitments.

A pre-renewal review helps avoid unnecessary renewals and supports better planning for E3, E5, Business Premium, Copilot, security, and compliance needs.

Should I choose annual or monthly Microsoft 365 licensing terms?

Annual terms can support predictable planning, while monthly terms can provide flexibility for changing user counts or short-term needs.

ProArch helps determine the right mix based on your workforce, budget, renewal timing, and growth plans.

What is the difference between Microsoft 365 E3, E5, and Business Premium?

Business Premium is often used by small and midsize organizations. E3 supports enterprise productivity and management needs. E5 adds more advanced security, compliance, analytics, and identity capabilities.

ProArch helps compare plans based on user roles, security needs, compliance requirements, endpoint management, and budget.

How does Microsoft 365 Copilot affect licensing strategy?

Microsoft 365 Copilot adds licensing, security, data governance, and readiness considerations.

ProArch helps assess which users need Copilot, whether your environment is ready, and how Copilot fits into your broader Microsoft 365 licensing plan.

Can ProArch help us move Microsoft 365 licensing from an EA to a CSP model?

Yes. ProArch helps organizations evaluate and transition Microsoft 365 licensing from an Enterprise Agreement, or EA, to a Cloud Solution Provider, or CSP, model.

A CSP model can simplify procurement, billing, support, renewals, and ongoing license management.
