Frequently asked questions
Is there a deal on Business Premium?
Yes. We review the licences you have today, show what Business Premium adds and what you could save by replacing separate security tools, then give you a fixed quote for your team. Ask about any current offers when you book your free review.
What is the difference between Business Standard and Business Premium?
Premium adds advanced security and management, including Defender for Business, Intune device management, Conditional Access and information protection.
Can Business Premium replace our antivirus?
In most cases yes. Defender for Business is included, so separate antivirus can often be retired, which offsets part of the price.
Do I need Business Premium for Copilot?
Copilot works with Standard too, but Premium gives the identity, device and data controls we recommend before rolling Copilot out.
How long does an upgrade take?
Licence changes are quick. Configuration of devices, identity and email protection usually takes a few days to a few weeks depending on your size.
Can ABCOM migrate us?
Yes. We are a Microsoft Cloud Solution Provider, so we can license, migrate, configure and support Premium for you.
