Microsoft has announced Microsoft 365 E7 – The Frontier Suite, a new top‑tier offering designed to help organisations move from AI experimentation to secure, enterprise‑wide execution. Launching 1st May 2026, E7 brings together productivity, AI, identity and security into a single, governed platform. 

For Climb partners, Microsoft 365 E7 is more than a new SKU. It represents a significant opportunity to lead higher‑value customer conversations around AI adoption, governance, security and long‑term transformation. 

What Is Microsoft 365 E7? 

Microsoft 365 E7 is positioned as the Frontier Suite, built for organisations that want AI to work across the entire business, not just in isolated teams or pilot projects. 

It brings together: 

  • Microsoft 365 E5 – Enterprise‑grade productivity, security, identity and compliance 
  • Microsoft 365 Copilot – AI embedded directly into everyday work experiences 
  • Microsoft Entra Suite – Advanced identity, access and governance controls 
  • Microsoft Agent 365 – Centralised visibility and control for AI agents 

Delivered as a single, integrated platform, E7 enables customers to scale AI securely while maintaining trust, compliance and control. 

Why Microsoft 365 E7 matters for partners 

Customer conversations around AI are evolving. Organisations are no longer asking what AI can do – they’re asking how to deploy it securely, govern it consistently and deliver measurable outcomes. 

Microsoft 365 E7 is designed to help customers move from experimentation to execution, and partners play a critical role in that journey. 

For resellers, E7 enables: 

  • Higher‑value, services‑led engagements focused on AI readiness and governance 
  • Clear upgrade paths from Microsoft 365 E5 and standalone Copilot deployments 
  • Stronger differentiation beyond licensing, into advisory and implementation services 
  • Ongoing annuity opportunities across AI lifecycle management and optimisation 

Microsoft has also aligned partner promotions and CSP incentives to help accelerate customer adoption of Microsoft 365 E7. 

Introducing Agent 365: A new partner conversation 

A key component of Microsoft 365 E7 is Microsoft Agent 365, which provides a single control plane to manage AI agents across the organisation. 

Agent 365 gives IT and security teams the visibility, governance, and security controls they need as AI agents become more autonomous and embedded in daily workflows – using familiar Microsoft admin and security experiences. 

For partners, this unlocks new opportunities around: 

  • AI governance and compliance services 
  • Secure agent deployment and management 
  • Ongoing optimisation and operational support 

Pricing and availability

Microsoft 365 E7 will be generally available from 1st May 2026, priced at $99 per user, per month. 

By bundling Microsoft 365 E5, Copilot, Entra Suite and Agent 365 into a single licence, E7 simplifies procurement and provides a compelling value proposition for customers ready to scale AI securely.
