It’s been a little sketchy on the details on how Workplace Analytics is licensed so I thought I’d share what our PM has said is the general costs (sans Volume Discount) of the new technology.
Workplace Analytics is available for enterprise level organizations (5,000+ seats) and costs $6/license/mo for enterprise SKUs (with the exception of E5 customers, which is $2/license/mo).
Workplace Analytics is not included in E5 because we made a strategic decision to deliver the Workplace Analytics value in a different fashion. The pricing reflects an investment in our customers that are invested in the Microsoft innovation cycle.
We understand that this is a significant departure from the typical licensing model, but Workplace Analytics is a unique solution that will significantly enhance the value of Office 365 by augmenting the layer of intelligence surrounding Office 365 products.
