at 300 users + E licences + teams premium, the product might as well not exist. Rather than it requiring a certain size of dataset, I think the real reason why Microsoft has got the limit in place, is that dit cannot procure sufficient AI hardware capacity at a decent price. The graphics and AI chip manufacturers are charging exploitative pricing, like they did during the crypto bubble.
I agree. But at some point in the not too distant future!!! Microsoft will realise this and adjust its pricing. For me, I wouldn’t be surprised if announcements at this weeks, Microsoft ignite may reflect this. Because, the current plan is simply unsustainable.
@@AndyMaloneMVP Exactly. The type of companies that have the agility and innovative ability to leverage it, are nearly all under 300 users. Large companies just move too slow.
They charge those prices because they are the only ones that do it and because it cost so much to engineer and produce. Actually, the crypto bubble was created by second hand sellers, not Nvidia or AMD. Not until the 3xxx series did Nvidia start charging a lot more.
Here in the U.S. I have been an insider and have been running all the different versions that I need and have seen it evolve. Right now I'm enjoying the early-release versions. Out of the beta phase.
It also does not only require a M365 E3 or E5 subscription but an Enterprise Agreement is what our reseller tells us. So we are out of luck with 750 E3 in CSP
In data leakage consideratuon, we didn't encourage usera put files in Onedrive. Sharepoint is using for collaboration but not to much. Should we adopt M365 copilot?
Are you sure the offer means you have to purchase all 300 seats x$30-$50 each? Meaning minimum $9k-$15k upfront..? I was under the impression it is for UP TO 300 users (paid per user). So a small business of 5 could surely still purchase it. Is that wrong?
Well I don't think you really mentioned this but the product itself isn't very good and that's a big reason not to spend $108,000 if you aren't e3 the product itself is not self aware like it doesn't know that there's a pro version of co-pilot it doesn't understand a lot of aspects of the program if you ask it questions about itself it's like I have no idea what you're talking about well that's not a good response and it doesn't Inspire confidence. I mean $108,000 for companies that do have E3 licenses you still as*** ton of money when you're comparing the cost of an E3 license at $20 per month that is a ton of an upgrade price. Once the product does what I think it is intended to do which is more than anything summarize all the email that anybody gets all day long and says hey these emails need priority here's a response for them read it and approve it the amount of time and the amount you will save a company is off the charts.
No, the 300 required seats is still current. This is mainly due to the fact that the Semantic Index is being rolled out with priority to customers who purchased minimum of 300 seats. Cannot activate the Semantic Index on a tenant for let say 10 people.
We shall wait-and-see. Now Bing chat enterprise, which is free will be rebranded to copilot and available from the 1st of December for smaller environments. However, one major flaw is that it will not save your prompts so you cannot reuse them again. Personally, I feel that Microsoft are putting all their eggs in one basket. I hope the eggs don’t crack! 😊
I don't want Copilot and it was forced installed without my permission. I don't want any AI on my computer. It violates my privacy, property and religious right.
@@joerevellnz I watched it up until the point where you would have to have 300 subscribers of Microsoft 365 before you can purchase copiolt. At that point he was lying to every day users.
