ImportantLicensing & end of support·Prepared by TL Mozan·1 min read
What should you review before renewing Microsoft 365?
Clear questions to review usage and needs before the renewal decision.
MicrosoftA good renewal does not begin with the current license count. It begins with who uses each service, what changed across the team, and where value is going unused.
The situation
Start with actual use
Review active accounts, roles, and services in use. This helps avoid renewing licenses that no longer support an operating need.
Why it matters
Match plans to roles
Not every role needs the same bundle. Aligning plans with employee responsibilities makes the decision clearer and easier to manage.
What to do
Plan before renewal
Collect department needs and expected changes early, then review them with your licensing provider before confirming plans and quantities.
