Who Business Premium is for
Microsoft 365 Business Premium in Kenya costs KES 2,717 (USD 20.90) per user per month through Priori, on an annual commitment and excluding 16% VAT. It includes everything in Business Standard plus Intune device management, Defender for Business, conditional access and data loss prevention, for organisations of up to 300 users.
Business Premium suits Kenyan organisations of up to 300 users that hold client, patient, payroll or financial data and need to control who can reach it, from which devices.
