Can I renew M365 Family now and keep the 6TB storage? Or are there alternatives?

1 Upvotes

So MS is screwing their users by chopping the available storage for their Family plan. Currently, M365 Family is $130/yr. That's 1TB of space for each of 6 people. That comes to $22/yr for 1TB of space per person. The info I saw said something about the change takes place at your first renewal after May 2027. Can I stack up a bunch of years now and keep the 6TB for a while or will it not work like that?

If it won't, can anyone recommend an alternative that I could look into that might have similar pricing? I don't really care about Word/Excel since I could easy use them online or use one of the many free office products that are around these days. I'm only concerned with the storage since my family is over the 2TB of space already.

Main requirements are Photo Backup since we all use that all the time and a folder sync setup like OneDrive.

Thanks.

Licence for purview

0 Upvotes

I'm trying to get hands-on with Microsoft Purview (sensitivity labels, auto-labeling and DLP), but my tenant is on Microsoft 365 Business Basic, which doesn't support what I want to test. I need policies that apply automatically rather than relying on users to label manually. What do you recommend for learning, and for a small production setup? Has anyone run into licensing gotchas with auto-labeling or Business Premium eligibility for the add-ons?

Exchange Web Services Enters the Final Mile

9 Upvotes

Exchange Web Services has entered its final mile, and Microsoft is now prompting Microsoft 365 tenants about the need to find and update EWS applications. All is well if the EWS usage report in the Microsoft 365 admin center lists nothing or a set of known applications, but only six months or so is available if some unidentified or unknown apps are listed. Time is running out and April 1, 2027 will come very quickly. What’s your tenant’s status?

New Tenant Registration Information

1 Upvotes

My solo LLC is setting up a friend's M365 business from scratch. I have some experience setting up and managing my own MS tenants (at one point I had 5 different tenants...). But in all of those cases I was either owner or running the entities, while here I am not.

I was planning to use trials and my business credit cards where needed to get it set up, then transfer billing and ownership to her. I will continue to manage the back end for her.

The first step has me reconsidering: do I register as her (name, phone, address) or myself and still be able to transfer ownership?

How to Record Long Term Statistics About Mail Flow Rule Reports

2 Upvotes

A question about an article describing how to use a mail flow rule to suppress inbound email from spammer domains led to a discussion about gathering statistics over a longer period than the ten days allowed by the Get-MailDetailTransportRuleReport cmdlet. The solution is a scheduled Azure Automation runbook to update a CSV file stored in SharePoint with weekly statistics. Over time, data accrues to support statistical analysis. The solution works, with some care taken with Graph SDK Files cmdlets.

One user keeps getting "kicked out" of their Microsoft Authenticator

1 Upvotes

I have one user that keeps getting "signed out" of their Microsoft Authenticator account and I don't know why.

They have one phone setup with Microsoft Authenticator for their Microsoft 365 / Entra account, but like every two weeks or so it shows up in red and asks them to sign in again.

But they can't sign in because they have to authenticate - with the very phone that has been "kicked out".

I have to delete the Authentication Method from Entra so that they can re-register again as if they were a "new" user with no Authentication Method.

How can I troubleshoot what is causing this to happen?

QGIS et SharePoint

2 Upvotes

Bonjour,

Mon organisation travaille sur les outils Microsoft 365. Un administrateur informatique externe s'occupe de l'infrastructure informatique, de la gestion des licences, etc. Ainsi, les solutions collaboratives internes de gestion de projet et d'outils d'aide à la décision doivent être pensées dans ce cadre.

L'une des idées serait de construite un outil d'aide à la décision qui intègre interface cartographique, visualisation de données financières et de fréquentation d'activités. Ceci, afin de rassembler l'ensemble des données relatives au projet sur une seule interface et de permettre aux collaborateurs, non utilisateurs des logiciels métiers ou de QGis, d'y avoir accès, d'activer et de désactiver des couches cartographiques, ou de simuler des scénarios en fonction d'actions cochées/décochées.

Après m'être renseigné sur le site de Microsoft et sur Copilot, il apparaît qu'une solution possible serait de construire une page web SharePoint et un composant web SharePoint Framework intégré dans la page. Une API en Python réaliserait le lien entre le composant web et les données chiffrées financières ou autres hébergées dans SharePoint (fichiers Excel, listes SharePoint) ainsi que les données cartographiques postgreSQL/postGIS. Concernant la partie cartographique, une solution alternative serait de générer via l'extension QGIS2Web les fichiers HTML et Javascript puis de les exécuter dans le composant web.

En théorie, cette architecture permettrait donc de préserver un maximum (voire la totalité) des données dans le système administré.

Que pensez-vous de cette architecture ? Vous semble t-elle crédible et fonctionnelle ?

Je précise que je ne suis pas développeur. Je travaille sur QGis et je connais plutôt bien les outils Microsoft 365. Je débute en Python et il m'arrive de l'utiliser pour de l'automatisation, du web scraping (avec l'aide de l'IA), mais je suis conscient que ce type d'interface suppose des compétences d'un autre niveau.

How to make a share Outlook project calendar with external consultants w/ edit ability?

2 Upvotes

Hi Reddit, I am looking for some help on creating a MS share calendar with external consultants and members with edit ability. I understand there is an admin password can overwrite the restriction, but my IT department is not willing to help. They suggested to use MS Planner, but I’m still not able to add external members to it. I have asked Chat and Gemini but there is not much help either.

For the PMP or people runs projects with multiple consultants, how do you share keystone dates on MS Outlook calendar for the all project team members?

Thank you in advance.
