Microsoft License Rebranding


Microsoft License Rebranding

Microsoft is rebranding the most popular Office 365 licenses we provide to our clients. Quo Vadis will use these new names on the invoices you receive going forward.

Those services which include mailboxes…

  • Office 365 Business Essentials is now Microsoft Business Basic
  • Office 365 Business Premium is now Microsoft Business Standard 

Those services which are strictly Office software without a mailbox…

  • Office 365 Business is now Microsoft 365 Apps for Business 
  • Microsoft 365 Business is now Microsoft 365 Business Premium 

It appears that Microsoft is subtly removing the “Office” term from the product line. Prices remain the same.


In addition to Microsoft’s name changes, our partner AppRiver has also taken this opportunity to rebrand some of its popular services as well:

  • SecureTide now is Email Threat Protection
  • Zix Encryption is now Email Encryption
  • CipherPost Pro is now Email Message Privacy
