Thanks for participating in today's Windows. Cloud. Management. Your questions answered! For reference, the panel covered this topic at around 19:10.
- Nov 29, 2023You could start with a dev tenant so you could have a test e5 license. https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-365/dev-program you could configure the tenant and with it you could enroll a virtual machine with autopilot so you could test it almost for free?
- MartyDueyNov 29, 2023Copper ContributorIs the M365 E3 sandbox environment time bound, i.e., does it expire after a set amount of time or period of inactivity?
- Charlie DobsonNov 29, 2023Iron ContributorThanks for that. I was unaware of the developer program / tenant option. I'll have to look into it.
- JoeH45Nov 29, 2023Iron ContributorJust be aware that you will need to actually use the tenant within every 90 day period or Microsoft will delete it. "Use" isn't defined, but they seem pretty lienient.
