Licensing for intranet on sharepoint

[Paulo_Felicio]

Hi everyone !

I would like to ask a question because I couldn't find the information.

For my internal users access a Sharepoint intranet, do I need a specific license for them?

For internal users to access a SharePoint intranet, you typically need appropriate licensing. Here are some considerations:

1. Office 365 Subscription: SharePoint Online is part of the Office 365 suite of services. Users accessing SharePoint Online will need a subscription to Office 365.
2. SharePoint Plan: Within Office 365, there are different plans that include access to SharePoint Online. The specific plan you need depends on the features and capabilities you require for your intranet. Common plans that include SharePoint Online are Office 365 Business, Office 365 Enterprise, and Microsoft 365 Enterprise.
3. User Licensing: Each user who accesses SharePoint Online will typically need a user license. The type of license required depends on the features and functionality they need access to. For read-only access to SharePoint sites, a basic user license may be sufficient. However, if users need additional capabilities such as editing documents or creating content, they may need higher-level licenses.
4. User Permissions: In addition to licensing, you'll also need to configure user permissions within SharePoint Online to control access to specific sites, libraries, and content. This allows you to restrict access to certain areas of your intranet based on users' roles and responsibilities.
5. External Users: If you need to provide access to external users (e.g., partners, vendors), you may need to purchase separate licenses or use SharePoint Online's external sharing features, depending on your requirements and licensing agreements.

It's important to review Microsoft's licensing agreements and consult with your Microsoft representative or licensing specialist to ensure that you have the appropriate licenses for your SharePoint Online intranet and that you comply with licensing terms and conditions.
