| 2025-02-27 | MC How Affect | 1. We will include the Viva Insights service plan in Microsoft 365 Copilot subscriptions
To help your organization realize the full value of Microsoft 365 Copilot, the entirety of Viva Insights including all premium features and capabilities (Viva Insights setup overview | Microsoft Learn) will be available to Microsoft 365 Copilot licensed customers. These Viva Insights service plans will be added under Microsoft 365 Copilot subscriptions: Microsoft Viva Insights: This service plan is automatically assigned at the user level to be included in Viva Insights analysis. Microsoft 365 global administrators can unassign this service plan from individuals to exclude them from Viva Insights. Microsoft Viva Insights backend: This service plan is automatically assigned at the tenant level without requiring any admin action and is needed for proper functioning of Viva Insights features. Microsoft 365 global administrators cannot edit this service plan. If your organization has already set up Viva Insights, we will continue to honor your existing admin and user settings for Viva Insights personal, organizational, advanced insights, and the Microsoft Copilot Dashboard. 2. We will increase the minimum Viva Insights license thresholds to access the Microsoft Copilot Dashboard, advanced insights, and organizational insights. Starting mid-March 2025, for customers who are not already using Viva Insights, a minimum of 50 assigned Viva Insights service plans will be required to access advanced insights, organizational Insights, and the Microsoft Copilot Dashboard. This minimum can be achieved through a combination of licenses. For example: 30 assigned Microsoft 365 Copilot licenses (that now includes the Viva Insights service plan) + 20 assigned Viva Insights licenses = 50 assigned Viva Insights licenses. For existing customers who already have access to advanced insights, organizational Insights, and the Copilot Dashboard, there is no minimum license requirement change. 3. We will retire Cohort analysis from the Microsoft Copilot Dashboard We will retire the cohort analysis features from the Microsoft Copilot Dashboard and Microsoft 365 admin center. These features include the behavior metrics tab in Compare between groups and the metric comparison between Copilot and non-Copilot users on the Impact page (go to Highlight > select Explore more on the cards for Meetings, Emails, or Teams chat). Also, we will retire the Manage non-Copilot users setting in Microsoft 365 admin center. You can continue to use cohort analysis features in Viva Insights advanced insights. | 1.
