Anyone using Office 365 ATP?

[snagrat]

I’m looking at setting up ATP am and comparing it to Barracuda’s Office 365 Essentials.

 

Barracuda are adamant we must license every use with the domain.

 

I see with ATP that you can set policies/rules to target users, groups or domains.

 

Is it possible with the ATP licensing to only license a selection of mailboxes and create rules only for those mailboxes.

 

We want to only license the Staff as Pupils mailboxes can only send/receive internal so we do not require ATP for those.

We use office 365 ATP and yes you can set policies at targeted users, so yes only licence the users you want office 365 ATP to apply to - but students get free licences anyway so would not cost you anything

Students get fee ATP? Where do you get that from?

Depends on how you licence, we have an OVS-ES and ordered enough to cover our staff and added the student benefit Office 365 ATP, the ratio is 1:15 (1 staff licence = entitled to 15 student benefit licences)

 

Do not get me wrong as it has taken me a number of months to get my reseller to find the correct part numbers ( in the end I contacted another reseller who sorted the parts numbers within a day!) and it is possible via OVS-ES, in fact I now have the student benefit licences for: Azure AP P1 / Office 365 ATP and Intune for Education - all student licences are free.

 

Ask your reseller about "Office 365 Advanced Threat Protection for students" / "OVS O365 AdvThreatProtect Stdnt Bnft 1Y Lic AP" this part number might not be the same from your reseller but if you have an OVS-ES then try this part number: W79-00002 O365ATPOpenStu ShrdSvr ALNG SubsVL OLV NL 1Mth Acdmc Stdnt STUUseBnft £0.00 per user

 

You can also get the student benefit via CSP licensing.
