I am the IT Admin / SysAdmin for a company with 100 or so employees. I am liking the direction that Edge is going, and want to start using it as a daily driver; ultimately hoping to make it the recommended browser in our organization. When I went to set up sync, however, I discovered it won't let me set it up using my work account; this is a showstopper, at least for me to recommend it broadly within our org. It appears that we would need to purchase additional licenses to make this work.

Microsoft Edge sync for Azure Active Directory (Azure AD) accounts is available for any of the following subscriptions:
- Azure AD Premium (P1 or P2)
- M365 Business Premium
- Office 365 E1 and above
- Azure Information Protection (AIP) (P1 or P2)
- All EDU subscriptions (Microsoft Apps for Students or Faculty, Exchange Online for Students or Faculty, O365 A1 or above, M365 A1 or above, or Azure Information Protection P1 or P2 for Students or Faculty)
We are using Microsoft 365 Apps for Business, which isn't in this list.
I see some previous posts from around this time last year that indicated that it was planned to enable syncing for all M365 accounts. Is this still planned?
