Microsoft 365 continues to expand its pay-as-you-go offerings, giving your organization more flexibility and control over how you use and pay for services. This article highlights the latest updates, including improvements to the admin experience and newly available services.
Enhanced navigation and user experience
Streamlined setup and management. Setting up and managing pay-as-you-go services is now easier than ever. The Microsoft 365 admin center has a more intuitive layout. The entry point for activating pay-as-you-go services moved from the Files and content section to the Billing and licenses section under Setup. This change provides a more centralized and logical location for managing both billing and service activation.
Improved billing flexibility. Your organization can now link their Microsoft 365 environments to an Azure subscription for billing. This integration simplifies cost tracking and enables better cost allocation across departments or business units. It's easier to manage budgets and monitor usage.
New pay-as-you-go services
SharePoint agents. These AI-powered assistants help users interact with SharePoint sites and document libraries. They can answer questions, summarize content, and perform tasks based on user permissions. Organizations can now enable SharePoint agents on a pay-as-you-go basis. No full Copilot license required.
Agents in Microsoft 365 Copilot Chat. These conversational agents allow users to interact with their work data by using natural language. They can answer questions, perform actions, and provide insights by using data from Microsoft Graph and other sources. By using pay-as-you-go billing, you pay only for the messages used.
