Microsoft Unbundles Teams from Office Software in Europe to Address EU Antitrust Concerns
- Microsoft will unbundle Teams from Office and Microsoft 365 suites in Europe starting October 1st.
- This move comes after the EU opened an antitrust probe into Microsoft's bundling practices prompted by a complaint from Slack.
- Enterprise customers in Europe will be able to purchase Microsoft 365 and Office 365 without Teams at a discounted price.
- Teams will also be offered as a standalone product for €5 per month for new customers.
- Microsoft will improve interoperability with competing services and make it easier for them to integrate with Microsoft products.
