Microsoft has announced that they will be working with a global US Dollar price list for their cloud services starting in April 2023. Read below what this means for your licensing costs.
Starting April 1, 2023, Microsoft will harmonize the prices of cloud services worldwide with the U.S. Dollar exchange rate. Microsoft also announces that prices will now be reviewed twice a year to account for currency fluctuations against the Dollar.
