  • Artikel

The Microsoft Purview solutions trial is a free and easy way to try risk and compliance capabilities of Microsoft Purview solutions. After a quick setup taking only a couple of minutes, the features of the Microsoft E5 license package are available for you to use for up to 90 days.

Where to sign up

Depending on the portal you're using, navigate to one of the following locations. When you start a trial, the trial is effective immediately for 90 days. It can take up to two hours for all Microsoft Purview solutions to appear in your left navigation. Sign out and sign back in to see the updates.

Microsoft Purview portal

Classic Microsoft Purview compliance portal

  • Sign in to the Microsoft Purview compliance trials hub.
  • On the Microsoft Purview solutions trial flyout pane, select Start trial.
  • If you close out of the flyout pane without starting a trial, you can view the Microsoft Purview trials cards and information. Find the Microsoft Purview solutions card and select Try now to start the trial.

At the hub you can see the status of your trials, sign up for other trials, and view purchase options.

Eligibility and licensing

Microsoft 365 E3, Office 365 E3, and Enterprise Mobility and Security E3 customers who don't already have a Microsoft E5 license package are eligible for the Microsoft Purview solutions trial. The trial isn't available for Microsoft 365 Government customers.

As part of the trial setup, 300 Microsoft 365 E5 compliance licenses are automatically applied to your organization. The licenses are active for 90 days. You might want to refer to Microsoft 365 licensing guidance for security & compliance for licensing details for each solution.

Roles for starting the trial

A user with one of the roles listed below can start or end a trial:

  • Billing Administrator
  • Compliance Administrator
  • Compliance Data Administrator
  • Global Administrator

Important

Microsoft recommends that you use roles with the fewest permissions. Minimizing the number of users with the Global Administrator role helps improve security for your organization. Learn more about Microsoft Purview roles and permissions.

Getting started, finding support, and ending the trial

Getting started

You can start using Microsoft Purview solutions as soon as you see them in the Microsoft Purview portal. Nothing is created automatically and users won't be affected. When you navigate to each solution, you may be guided to make extra setup configurations to start using features.

Trial user guide

Use our trial user guide to help you get started.

Finding support

Organizations can use FastTrack for trial deployment support if the tenant has at least 150 licenses. Get more details about FastTrack.

Extending the trial

You can extend the trial within the last 15 days of the trial period. You're limited to a maximum of two trial periods. If you don't extend by the time your trial period ends, you need to wait at least 30 days before signing up for a second trial.

Ending the trial

Admins can disable the trial anytime by selecting End trial on the Purview solutions trial card on the Microsoft Purview trials and recommendations page in the new Microsoft Purview portal.

If you decide not to upgrade to the E5 level solutions, unless stated otherwise for the solution your trial data will be maintained for a period of time, usually 180 days, before being permanently deleted. You may continue to access the data gathered during the trial until that time.

  • Data Loss Prevention

    Microsoft Purview Data Loss Prevention (DLP) helps you control sharing and use of sensitive info on devices, apps, and services.

    • You won't be able to edit or add Teams or Devices locations in existing or new policies.

Legal teams can also manage the entire legal hold notification process by communicating with custodians involved in a case. Learn more about eDiscovery.

  • Information Protection

    Implement Microsoft Purview Information Protection with sensitivity labels to help you discover, classify, and protect your sensitive content wherever it lives or travels. With the trials, you can recommend users apply sensitivity labels to their emails and docs, discover and automatically label sensitive content, take advantage of machine learning based classifiers, and get started quickly with our recommended labels and policies.

    The Information Protection trial provides you with default labels, autolabeling for documents and emails, and data loss prevention to protect credit card numbers shared in Teams and by devices. The default policies we create for you get you up and running quickly, but you can fully customize them as you want.

    When the trial ends:

    • All files and emails labeled during your trial stay labeled. You can manually remove the labels.
    • Your existing policies stay turned on unless you turn them off.
    • Any autolabeling policies can't be edited after the trial ends, but can be deleted.
