by

If you have missed, the 7 July, Julia White Microsoft, announced that they are introducing a new packet called Secure Productive Enterprise, which will arise later this year.

The Secure Productive Enterprise is replacing the Enterprise Cloud Suite and bringing together Office 365, Windows 10 Enterprise and EMS. And in the same time (EMS) Enterprise Mobility Suite is transforming to Enterprise Mobility + Security suite, but yet will be called EMS. And Azure Rights Management is replaced by Azure Information Protection.

The same day, the 7 July, Andrew Conway, senior director EMS product marketing Microsoft, Announced the introducing of Enterprise Mobility + Security suite.

In Julia White’s announcement, you can see that it will be two offerings of Secure Productive Enterprise.

Secure Productive Enterprise E3 which is formerly The Enterprise Cloud Suite and Secure Productive Enterprise E5 which is a brand new one.

And in Andrew Conway’s announcement, you see what is different between these two offerings.
