Big moment: I have 365 agents in Microsoft Agent 365.

This is for a solopreneur M365 tenant. ~350 of those agents have not been created by me. It's just random bots MS and partners push to tenants by default.

Yet it makes the numbers big and proves you need governance tools like A365 for it all...

Q: Why is Agent 365 now priced per-user and not per-agent?
A: Because at GA, it will not have autonomous agent support.

Microsoft 365 E7 had to be launched so that MS sales reps can catch up on their end-of-fiscal targets. But what A365 contains at launch is just half of what has been advertised.

Entra Agent ID looks nice, yet A365 OBO agents will just leverage delegated tokens from M365 users.

"#Agent365 acts less like a single, clearly defined product and more like a work in progress. It is an evolving bundle of #Microsoft capabilities that comes at a premium cost. Gartner has not seen enough new or dedicated functionality in Agent 365 to justify its current price point, though this will likely change as the product matures."

Microsoft 365 E7 adds AI governance; prices draw critiques

Microsoft's Agent 365 is the vendor's answer to enterprise AI agent qualms, but a pricey tie-in for the 'work-in-progress' platform with Microsoft 365 raised eyebrows this week.
