Administering an Office 365 Account
Managing Your Subscriptions One of the beautiful things about Office 365 is that it’s built on a model of efficiency. You can purchase only what you need—for only the team members you need—and keep your costs down and your support load light while moving toward the business-critical goals on your horizon. To help you manage who uses what and when they use it, Office 365 gives administrators the means to review, manage, and change the subscriptions to the services their teams use. You’ll find the tools you need for reviewing and managing subscriptions in the S ubscriptions area on the left side of the Admin Overview page. Each of the three links offers you a different way to survey your Office 365 subscriptions:
Manage provides you with a listing of all current subscriptions in use by your
■
team.
Licenses shows the number of licenses you have available (and are using) as part
■
of your subscriptions.
Purchase enables you to instantly add to the subscriptions you already have.

To view your team’s subscriptions in Office 365, click the Manage link. The table shown in Figure 3-20 will appear. (Your subscriptions might look a bit different, of course.)
FIGURE 3-20 In the Subscriptions area, you can review the subscription and licenses available in your
Office 365 account.
