MicrosoftLance_Crandall 'simpler'? In what way? Curious the justification behind this pricing model. I think that there might be a disconnect between what Microsoft think's the customers want and what they actually want.
I'm happy to pay more for great secure technology but this pricing model and rollout misses the mark. I have a feeling that this was the same team that priced 'Scheduler for Microsoft 365'. I guess this is what happens when companies shift to price features purely on the economics (1 org paying $100,000 / year == 100 orgs paying $1000). Even if their math checks out and they make sufficient money from a small subset of customers (which I doubt) their decision just leads to more and more IT professionals moving away to other platforms. And thus the industry shifts. Their pricing team needs to add 'attract customers' to their economic calculations. I feel sorry for the engineers that worked hard on this....
