Before you buy
How much does Microsoft Teams Essentials cost?
Pricing depends on how many seats or devices you need and the term you choose, so we quote it rather than list it. Volume discounts available. Tell us your numbers and we'll send a quote.
Can you set it up for us?
Yes. We license Microsoft Teams Essentials, deploy it, and stay on as your support team afterwards, so there's one place to call when something needs changing.
We already have Microsoft licenses. Can we move them to you?
In most cases, yes. Send us what you have today and when it renews, and we'll tell you what can be transferred and what's better left until renewal.
Don't know what you need? That's our job.
Tell us how your team works and what you're trying to get done. We'll match you to the right plans and trim anything you won't use, so you only pay for what you need. Your wallet will thank you.
