Sharepoint Teams Pricing

Question

Hello everyone,

I run a small business with 15 employees, and we are currently using Microsoft 365 with a local NAS for our operations. We want to switch to SharePoint and are facing a challenge in terms of storage management, and I'm seeking advice on how to address this.

To give some context: each of our users has access to 1TB of private SharePoint storage. However, our company policy does not allow the use of this private storage as we need to be able to access all files at any given time. As such, we are looking to use MS Teams with SharePoint storage for our employees to store their files.

Our current plan provides us with 1TB of shared storage, but we actually need a total of 10TB. The additional storage would cost us an extra €1,800 (€0.20/GB) per month, which is a significant expense for our small business.

We are exploring alternatives to meet our storage and collaboration needs while reducing costs. If you have faced similar challenges or have any suggestions on how we can better manage our storage needs, your insights would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you in advance for your help!

Hi @Felix ,

The total storage space you get in SharePoint Online is based on your subscription and the number of licenses. Suppose you subscribed to any Microsoft 365 Business Basic, Business Premium, Office 365 Enterprise E1, E3, E5, or SharePoint Plan 1 or 2 plans. In that case, you get 1 TB plus 10 GB per license purchased! Office 365 F3 license gets you 10 GB plus 2 GB per license. You can store the limit (25TB) in a single group/site.
Reference: SharePoint limits

For sharepoint charges for each license, please refer to: Compare SharePoint Online billing options
