Need precise details on Azure Edu Basic
Hello Community, I have some education clients on A1 licence (the free one) that come with Azure Edu basic licensing. I checked the page for Azure details plan (Pricing - Active Directory | Microsoft Azure) but I did not find any details on Azure Edu basic plan. Is this the free one ? And if so, some features are not correct since A1 admin customers can set MFA (for example) with this basic plan. Can someone help me about features included and not included in Azure admin center for clients with Azure Edu basic licensing ? Thanks
365 A3 for Faculty - cannot upgrade to Windows 10 edu (ent)
We recently purchased Microsoft 365 A3 for Faculty, we were assured that for educations users there was an upgrade path from home to Windows 10 Edu (comes with the 365 A3 for Faculty) . We have not been able to upgrade. Things we have tried: MDM, setting up MDM in intune, doesn't work with a rest on the home ed, or with a glpk on pro connecting user via azure (add work or school account) installing 10 pro and signing in with the domain account assigned the licence many command line product key tricks changing our domain and users to ***.onmicrosoft.com installing education and Enterprise editions installing the office apps setting up the education store to auto switch Contacting 365 support, activation support, support through our partner. Nothing we (or our partner) have done gets us closer (we have been working on this since Nov 30th). Any suggestions are greatly appreciated. Brad
Azure AD Group Based Licensing in Education. Will this apply to Staff, Students and Alumni?
Please note that I have previously posted this as a ‘reply’ to the announcement of the feature https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/Azure-Active-Directory/Azure-AD-group-based-license-management-for-Office-365-and-more/m-p/57595#M304 - I apologize if this is some sort of cross posting breach. Greetings all, My question is specifically in regards to end user licensing in the Education Sector, which is needed to use Azure AD Group Based Licensing. Going by Source 1, all users who inherit a license via the group based licensing model will need an Azure AD Basic license (not Azure AD Free). Going by Source 2, this will change once the functionality reaches GA. Once this happens, "it will be included in Office 365 Enterprise E3 and similar products." As Education licensing differs from the standard Enterprise E3, will this functionality be included at no cost for Student and Alumni licensing? As you can imagine, a large University will have hundreds of thousands of Alumni and tens of thousands of Students. Having Education E3 include the Azure AD Basic licensing / eligibility for Azure AD Group based licensing for $0 will help for Staff, but if Azure AD Basic licensing is not included for Alumni and Students, the Education sector will not be able to afford to use this awesome functionality. Can someone please provide clarity, and preferably a link to a valid Microsoft site, on how Azure AD Group Based Licensing and Azure AD Basic will apply to Staff, Students and Alumni. Source 1 - Link - https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/active-directory/active-directory-licensing-whatis-azure-port... Features – During public preview, a paid or trial subscription for Azure AD basic or premium editions is required in the tenant to use group-based license management. Also, every user who inherits any licenses from groups must have the paid Azure AD edition license assigned to them. Source 2 - Link - https://blogs.technet.microsoft.com/enterprisemobility/2017/02/22/announcing-the-public-preview-of-a... It contains the following statement: "While group-based license management is in public preview you will need an active subscription for Azure AD Basic (or above) in your tenant to assign licenses to groups. If you don’t have one, just sign up for an Enterprise Mobility + Security trial. Later, when this functionality becomes generally available it will be included in Office 365 Enterprise E3 and similar products."IT Pro in Education Career Profile: James van den Berg
