Microsoft announce new features and price adjustments for Office 365 and Microsoft 365, scheduled for 2026.

The updates include incorporating Defender for Office 365 Plan 1 in the E3 licences, integrating more Intune features into Microsoft 365 E3 and E5, and adding 50 GB of mailbox storage to the Microsoft 365 Business plans. These enhancements come with a price increase ranging from 5% to 33% and will impact commercial and not-for-profit customers starting July 1, 2026. US government customers will see similar increases applied (where necessary) in two separate stages.
