    Floyds_on_Greenwood Microsoft has several step-ups which would prove cheaper than an E5 license. Think the cost is something like;

     

    Defender ATP is £3.27 per user per month

    Defender ATP for Server is £3.27 per server per month​

Floyds_on_Greenwood We had planned to deploy MS Defender with ATP. However, that offering looks to require M365 E5 licensing? M365 E3 is our desired offering subscription.  That could very well prove too costly for folks to absorb with a deployment over a number of users. Does MS have an offering outside of full cost of an M365 E5 subscription, and would deploy Defender with ATP coverage across 300-500 users?

 

Thanks

      That's attractive.  Converts to about $4.50 USD per user/per month.

      Thank you
