ANNOUNCEMENT: Microsoft 365 Business Premium & Office 365 E1 grant discontinuation
This is a real pity and disappointment. We had just started using Microsoft for our charity admin - we're a small charity and planned to use 3 users on business premium to manage our membership lists, write documents using desktop office, share files securely through Sharepoint and use Teams for our meetings. While it was a much better experience for us to do this all through the Office 365 platform, there are other free alternatives out there so it would be difficult for us to justify paying for these features from the Charity's funds.
We were also going to switch our domain over to use Office 365 for email but we've been stung before by ever changing pricing and non-profit offerings so this change is a good warning to charities that the Microsoft non-profit offering should not be relied upon.
