Microsoft to separate Teams and Office globally amid antitrust scrutiny - eviltoast

Microsoft (MSFT.O) will sell its chat and video app Teams separately from its Office product globally, the U.S. tech giant said on Monday, six months after it unbundled the two products in Europe in a bid to avert a possible EU antitrust fine.

    If this works like how they did it here in Europe, where this change happened last year, then this won’t affect existing tenants, other than also getting a standalone teams sku available.

    On new tenants created after the change took effect however, there will be no sku with teams bundled available, only the standalone teams sku and teams less E3/E5 skus.
