MS Edge Enterprise Account Syncing

It seems it is now enabled for me in Dev channel, but it is showing that "sync has been disabled by the administrator." This is a domain-joined PC. Is this setting looking at the "Sync your settings"...

Jordan Paris So it appears that the issue is that it requires AD Premium, in particular - Enterprise State Roaming. I had two tenants, one with, one without. One worked, one didn't. I lit up AD Premium on the onr that didn't and after a little while, I was able to get it going.

Yep! I saw some posts mentioning that and I turned it on for myself to test and it started syncing as expected!

  Jordan Paris Sync is currently available only for AAD premium accounts. We are exploring ways to improve experience for other AAD SKUs. Thanks for your feedback.

    Hey akhator!
    
    I understand that you posted that you're exploring other ways for other AAD SKUs to be able to sync. I'm interested to know if this has got any further yet?
    
    Google Chrome enables this feature for all customers and Microsoft enables it for home accounts, so why not people who actually pay you money, no matter what SKU they have?
    
    First line workers who just have an exchange account (Office 365 E1) for example, would love this feature to be able to save passwords and have consistent experiences between computers.
    
    It would be great to see this moving forward if at all possible.
    
    Thanks in advance
    Jay
