With DLP you can identify and protect sensitive information in Exchange Online (mail), SharePoint and Onedrive for Business. DLP is not available in Office 365 E1. Office 365 E1 is really cheap compared to the E3 version. It costs around the $ 8.00 per user/month, the E3 version cost $ 20.00 per month. What is the difference between Office 365 E1(Nonprofit Staff Pricing) and Microsoft 365 Business Basic (Nonprofit Staff Pricing)- I have been told that none, but can someone clarify this please. In Office 365 admin panel can not see details of Office 365 E1 (Nonprofit Staff Pricing), no matter what I choose. E3 for an example is well explained.

Microsoft 365 Business Voice makes it easy for small and medium organizations to turn Microsoft Teams into a powerful and flexible telephone system. It's a replacement for traditional telephony providers and in-house phone systems that can be difficult and costly to manage. You can set up both toll and toll-free numbers, call menus to help callers get to the right department, audio conferencing so you can host meetings with anyone, and more. You can even give people their own phone numbers so they can get calls directly.

Office 365 E1 license I have got some office 365 E1 license in our admin centre and I would like to add all of those licenses on a AD security group. Which means, whenever you add that user to the ad security group, it will assign them the license. Once you've activated the Office 365 E1 Trial, turn on the license for any uses who need it. To learn how, read Manage user access to Teams. Once you've turned on the E1 Trial for the users who need it, you'll manage these users just like you manage users who have a paid license. Hello i have some question about DLP policy 1. Policy DLP can apply with user E1 license? Policy DLP can apply for user from local send email to cloud (hybrid exchange) and from cloud to local 3. Policy DLP can apply for user from local relay to office365 EOP and send outsite to.

Business Voice does all of this by wrapping Microsoft 365 Phone System features into an easy-to-manage bundle. You don't need to worry about choosing the right plan or feature; they're all there and set up for you. Because Phone System is a part of Teams, you can turn any PC, Mac, or mobile device into a phone that can use your Business Voice phone number.

In an eBook
we published previously, we talked about some of the common mistakes to avoid
when migrating to Microsoft
Office 365 for the first time. These steps will help you to avoid
disruption to your migration process and ensure a smooth journey towards your transition
to Office 365.

But apart from the considerations discussed in the eBook, selecting
the right subscription plan is also one of the more crucial steps in an Office
365 migration. With several plans to choose from, it can be hard to pick the
right one for your business’ needs.

Here in this blog, we explain the commonalities and differences between the Enterprise plans on Office 365, available in E1, E3 and E5.

The Enterprise Plan, as the name suggests, is intended for
larger organisations, typically with 300 plus users or those with more complex
productivity, communication and collaboration needs. But there may be benefits
(like shared activation rights) that mean an E3 is useful to you even if you
are a smaller business. The following benefits apply to all Enterprise Plans:

• 99.9% guaranteed uptime and SLA.
• Enterprise email with custom email domain
  address.
• A license that covers up to 5 phones, 5 tablets
  and 5 PCs or Macs per user.
• Free FastTrack deployment support for up to 150
  seats purchased.
• 24/7 phone and web support with Microsoft (and
  8×5 support with PA Managed Services).

There are three SKUs under the Enterprise Plan. These are
E1, E3 and E5 and they differ in these ways:

Desktop or mobile apps

One of the key differences in the Enterprise plans is the
availability of the apps in desktop, web or mobile.

1. E1 includes only web-based Microsoft Office apps
   (Outlook, Word, Excel, PowerPoint) plus email, file storage (OneDrive for
   Business) real-time collaboration (SharePoint), communication (Yammer), instant
   messaging and online meetings (Teams).
2. E3 includes all the features in E1 with Microsoft
   Office apps available on desktop, web and mobile. Also includes email, file
   storage, instant messaging, online meetings, real-time collaboration and
   document management. Shared activation rights of the Office client is also a
   feature of E3 (and E5) making it suitable for Citrix and RDS deployments.
3. E5 includes all the features in E3 plus advanced
   security, analytics and voice capabilities.

Storage Space

All Enterprise plans start at 1 TB storage on OneDrive for
Business. For E1, 1 TB is already the maximum limit. E3 and E5 plans have the
option to adjust to 5 TB, which your administrator can configure. You can
request for more additional space on OneDrive for Business by contacting
Microsoft support.

Communication and Collaboration

Communication and real-time collaboration are key features
in Office 365, with multiple apps to choose from. You can stay connected using Teams,
SharePoint or Yammer.

Microsoft Teams is a hub for teamwork that allows you
to store, share and collaborate on files and host online meetings or send
instant messages. All E1, E3 and E5 plans allow you to do online meetings or
video conferencing for up to 250 people and live events for up to 10,000
people.

SharePoint is a content and collaboration platform
designed to help organisations manage and collaborate on their documents and to
streamline and automate workflows. Communication sites and team sites for
department-level communication are available across the three Office 365
Enterprise plans.

Yammer is a corporate social networking service also
included in the three Office 365 Enterprise plans. As more organisations become
more social, Yammer can assist with cultivating and enhancing your workplace
culture.

Other Apps

Packed with other business applications, Office 365 is designed
to modernise and transform any workplace. App availability depends on the plan
that you are subscribed in, however.

1. E1 includes Stream, a corporate video streaming app; Planner, for lightweight task management; PowerApps and Flor for low- to no-code workflow automation; ToDo for personal task management; and Delve, for easy search and discovery.
2. E3 includes the features in E1 plus access to OneNote, for browser-based note-taking ; eDiscovery, for evidence use in legal cases; and manual retention and data classification policies.
3. E5 includes everything in E3 plus advanced analytics and self-service reporting with Power BI Pro and allows you to make phone calls using Office 365’s E5 voice capabilities.

Security

Securing your information in the cloud is a top priority for
Microsoft. Each Enterprise plan has built-in and progressive security features
as follows:

Microsoft 365 E1

1. E1 has built-in Data Loss Prevention (DLP), mail
   filtering and anti-malware.
2. E3 includes all the features in E1 plus eDiscovery,
   for evidence use in legal cases and manual retention and data classification
   policies.
3. E5 has everything in E3 plus sophisticated security
   with Advanced Threat Protection, Advanced eDiscovery, auto data classification
   with Advanced Data Governance and Office Cloud App Security.

Note: Some of the security features in Office 365 is a cut-down version of what’s available in the Microsoft Enterprise Mobility and Security (EMS) suite. It is best to combine Office 365 plans with EMS plans for a more secured mobile IT environment. You can find the differences of the various EMS plans here.
