Intune, Entra ID P1

[Olliedawg]

Someone please help me understand Microsoft licencing!

 

Does what we have entitle us to use Intune device management, autopilot etc.. Each of our staff members have the following applied

 

 

• 365 A1 for Faculty/Student
  
• 365 Apps for Enterprise
  
• Entra ID P1
  

 

To manage staff access to email/office apps on their own devices we are still using the "Basic Mobility and Security" policy in the Purview portal (Overview of Basic Mobility and Security for Microsoft 365 - Microsoft 365 admin | Microsoft Learn). Our MDM Authority is set to Microsoft Office 365. However if what we have does entitle us I'd go ahead and swap over. Can't see anything in the UI to do the swap so I'm assuming we aren't entitled to Intune via P1.

No, those licenses do not include Intune device management

I thought so! I'd done some reading but wanted to ask the hivemind here too

 

I would need either A3 or Intune P1

Those licences enrol you in the intune infrastructure but to actually do anything you'll need the appropriate licences.

 

We moved to A3 a few months ago and now use Intune for staff laptops

Ask your Microsoft Reseller about 'Enterprise Mobility + Security A3 for Faculty/Students'. This was the cheapest way we found to add P1 and Intune licences to 'Top Up' our A1 Licences.

Along with 'Microsoft 365 Apps for Faculty/Students' which got us the Office 365 Desktops licences back without having to go up to A3 once they removed the 'Plus' versions of A1.
