Microsoft ends some standalone SharePoint and OneDrive plans

Microsoft has slipped out news that it’s killing some standalone SharePoint and OneDrive plans.

The software giant delivered the news in a note for its partners, which explains it is “evolving its cloud storage and collaboration offerings and is retiring the standalone SharePoint Online (SPO) plan 1 and plan 2 and OneDrive for Business (ODB) plan 1 and plan 2 SKUs.”

SharePoint Online is a web-based version of Microsoft’s collaborationware suite. Plan 1 costs $5 per user per month and includes 1TB of cloud storage. Plan 2 doubles the cost and adds unlimited cloud storage and more advanced features.

OneDrive for Business Plan 1 offers a terabyte of cloud storage at $5 per user per month. Plan 2 includes up to 5TB of storage, adds tools including data loss prevention, and can extend to provide 25TB of storage for users who are part of a team.
