M365 New Microsoft Name Changes



Microsoft has decided change some of their cloud offering brand name to tune up cloud services. Some of O365 services/offerings will be re-named as M365 (Microsoft 365), and reading article listed on MS site, it makes sense for the name change. As O365 continue to grow, MS is adding more applications into their arsenal. The new name convention “M365” the scope of such offerings will make more sense.

Here is official MS link explanation as why this is happening;

Q. Why are you making these changes?
A. First, we want our products to reflect the range of features and benefits in the subscription. Microsoft 365 is an integrated set of apps and services that puts AI and other cutting-edge innovations to work for you. And for small and medium-sized businesses, that includes new capabilities in Microsoft Teams to help you host rich meetings and events online; cloud file storage and sharing capabilities so you can collaborate from anywhere; and security and identity solutions to safeguard your businesses. Second, we’re always looking for ways to simplify. This new approach to naming our products is designed to help you quickly find the plan you need and get back to your business.
