Regarding the pricing, setup cost, and licensing, it was unreasonable before and was not realistic. No one was going to use it, and no one really did use it unless given some money to blow in the first month just trying to understand how to use it. The announcement this week has changed everything. Microsoft Security Copilot is now integrated with E5, providing four hundred SKUs for one thousand users who have E5, up to ten thousand users. If buying E5, everything is now included.
Its pricing scares our customers the most. They didn't understand that it would generate such a cost. Once they understood, they became defensive about wanting to commit because it's not clear to them what the costs would be. We, as partners, need to do a better job explaining it and showing the value because many clients struggle to make the connection between how much they pay and the return on investment. For us, the licensing is fairly straightforward, but we have a team dedicated to it. However, it's a little bit complex for customers.

Pricing is decent if you compare it with the market. We were previously using a different service, but we wanted something under one umbrella, which is something Microsoft is able to give. For example, Microsoft Teams plays a major role in our organization, so we don't want to use Slack as a separate entity or G Suite just for emails. Microsoft gives everything under one umbrella, which is interesting, and that's why we are thinking about the license upgrade, since we want to use more security features. Microsoft has a lot of security options, which is a very good thing.
I did not handle the acquisition or tender for Microsoft Security Copilot, so I cannot compare the pricing to other products. However, the assistance it provides us suggests that it is worth the price.
The pricing and setup costs are a big struggle in the Netherlands. We have an educational school agreement for seven years, but there are additional charges for the setup of licensing, especially for students and teachers.

Pricing has not been a problem for me. Most of my customers are already within Microsoft stack, and the pricing is mostly well accepted.
Pricing and licensing are much better with Microsoft Copilot compared to competitors.
