Migrate from Defender for Endpoint to Defender for Business

[Andrew Morpeth]

Hi all,

I can't find any guidance on moving from an existing Defender for Endpoint licence to the new to Defender for Business licence. 

Current situation is we have Defender for Endpoint Plan 2 licences. The customer is licenced for Business Premium which now includes Defender for Business.

Is it as simple as just removing the Defender for Endpoint Plan 2 licences?

I understand there are some slight differences in feature set, and we are OK with that.

Hi Andrew,

according to these FAQ (https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-365/security/defender-business/mdb-faq?view=o365-worldwid...) for now, you will have to contact support to migrate your tenant experience.

hope that helps :)
