10:30 cheeky, mate! At this point I do use edge, every time I'm told to use chrome! As a firefox user and a contrarian it's what comes natural. AI is gonna help so many people, good work. Thank god they gave up on Bing... Sydney was better than 'Bing'!
Hi, great videos on apps I didn't know existed. I just bought a new laptop and migrating everything over. I have been paying for a family 365 account for years and only using it for my outlook, so wasted a lot of money. Im trying to search and figure out what plan I should be on and expected a simple side by side comparison chart on the Microsoft site but could not find anything, then I called and wasted an hour, eventually the representative found a page that was not easily forwarded and is going to try and write out long hand the difference between the family account and the business account. She said she can only help with the business account, the family is a different department. Why so hard? So my question here, can you do a video explaining / comparing plans? Or maybe just a link to a page that shows the up to date Apps available? Also copilot is a subscription, but is on the Edge/Bing homepage. Is it the same Copilot? Thanks.
Great question. If it's just for you then I would go with either the personal or the family account. This gives you access to Outlook and the office apps. Personal is just for you whereas the family account is for 6 members of your family so you could split the cost and save loads of money. Apps included (at time of writing) are Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook, Defender (protection), Editor (helps improve writing), Clipchamp (video editing), Teams (personal), OneNote (note taking), Access (databases ... quite old), Publisher (again quite old software), Forms (awesome for surveys and questionnaires). Not sure where you're from but your YT channel looks like NZ so the comparison for personal vs family is at www.microsoft.com/en-nz/microsoft-365/buy/compare-all-microsoft-365-products If you're looking at it for a small business (rather than an enterprise), the business plans are at www.microsoft.com/en-nz/microsoft-365/business/compare-all-microsoft-365-business-products. These contain email and apps like the family plans but also include collaboration tools like Microsoft Teams. You can also add your own domain easily to the email and centrally administer the accounts so you can add or remove people. These are licensed per user so you can see the cost for each user on that page. Copilot comes in two flavours Copilot - the version in Bing/Edge/Windows 11 (demoed here in the video) which is included for all personal users/business plans. Copilot for Microsoft 365 - an additional subscription that is only available to Enterprise customers (taking over 300 licenses at time of writing) which integrates into the apps themselves. There are additional videos on this on my channel but this likely won't be available to you right now.
@@ProductivityCoach Thanks for the quick and comprehensive answer. Ot still does not 100% answer my question. For background, I have a new laptop and some time off work so want to set my new machine with the latest options and de-clutter. I only just found out what 365 actually was and through your channel the Apps available to me (I thought I was just paying for outlook), its been a recuring monthly subscription I have been paying for years without really paying attention. And I have been over paying for the family version when I am a single user. Also paying monthly when yearly is cheaper. Also paying for google workspace (4 email accounts with 30gb Gdrive + Photos and another yearly subscription for a domain). If I could roll all this into one account/ ecosystem plus the benefit of new productivity apps I can learn then that would make a lot of sense. But it’s a lot of work to figure out and I am not a tech expert. This is why I was looking for the side by side comparison of subscriptions with available apps but it’s a rabbit hole with layers. After you find the main apps there are then further possibilities such as loom, copilot and other apps that are available but you have to dig to find them. But the bit that got me started on this journey was trying to figure out how to get my outlook inbox over to my new machine. I have 5 email account nicely set up on my old outlook, but when I login on the new machine it only has my Hotmail email. So for this to work as a seamless cloud solution,(that can be set up on a new machine if this computer breaks or gets lost), do I need exchange and to migrate from google workspace or should I just manually add the accounts? Whatever effort I put into this I want to future proof and get the biggest bang for my buck with subscriptions.
@@johnwinder2462 thanks for the comment and you are bang on, your question has not been answerred. After countless hours trying to figure it out myself microsoft support not much clarity. I came accross a short video on youtube on how to activate copilot. The video is meager to say the least but leads me to believe you need to request to activate copilot and the wait for permission to arrive in your inbox. Not sure happy to receive any thoughts on the matter but here is the link to the video ruclips.net/video/YSjw354dTqg/видео.html&pp=ygUlaG93IHRvIGFjdGl2YXRlIGNvcGlsb3QgbWljcm9zb2Z0IDM2NQ%3D%3D
@johnwinder2462 Hello, John. I'm an old hotmail user and 365 Family subscriber too. Have you looked into some articles about exporting & importing Outlook PST files? I did that import & export once many years ago but forgotten about whether or not the Send/Receive functions will roll on nicely on my newer machine back then. Hope that you've found a solution. Cheers.
Copilot on the web (in this video) is included but the Copilot for Microsoft 365 that are in my other videos need an additional license which is only available to enterprises right now.
I don't care about copilot. I do care about copilot in my IDE, which ain't free. Thank you very much, came here only to say that single thing, now bye forever!

I do appreciate the call out that licenses weren't mentioned before. I had to look around! 😂👍
Thanks! That was a learning for me as I got a LOT of comments on another video about it.

If you're looking at it for a small business (rather than an enterprise), the business plans are at www.microsoft.com/en-nz/microsoft-365/business/compare-all-microsoft-365-business-products. These contain email and apps like the family plans but also include collaboration tools like Microsoft Teams. You can also add your own domain easily to the email and centrally administer the accounts so you can add or remove people.

Copilot comes in two flavours

Nice quick show and tell. Thank you 👍
Thanks. Glad you found it useful.
Awesome information. Thank you.
Glad it was helpful!
is copilot included in the basic personal 365 subscription?
Copilot on the web (in this video) is included but the Copilot for Microsoft 365 that are in my other videos need an additional license which is only available to enterprises right now.
I don't care about copilot.
I do care about copilot in my IDE, which ain't free.
Thank you very much, came here only to say that single thing, now bye forever!
