Microsoft 365 Licensing – What are they called now and what is included in each?

Microsoft 365 licenses have recently changed their name to help people understand them more easily as the previous names caused confusion.

Microsoft License Subscription Name Changes (as of 21st April 2020)

Old Name	New Name
Office 365 Business Essentials	Microsoft 365 Business Basic
Office 365 Business Premium	Microsoft 365 Business Standard
Microsoft 365 Business	Microsoft 365 Business Premium
Office 365 Business	Microsoft 365 Apps for Business
Office 365 ProPlus	Microsoft 365 Apps for Enterprise

When Microsoft used both the terms, Office 365 and Microsoft 365, things were very confusing for many. The new names are more straight forward because now it’s all about Microsoft 365.
