Microsoft 365 E3 and E5 begin receiving Intune Suite capabilities

The main development is a gradual commercial licensing rollout that adds selected Intune Suite capabilities to Microsoft 365 E3 and E5. Eligible tenants are automatically provisioned, with no action required, and receive a Microsoft 365 admin center notification 30 days before the change takes effect. The other updates are documentation-only enrollment wording and procedure clarifications.

  Commercial Microsoft 365 E3 and E5 receive broader Intune Suite packaging

  The EMS E3 component included with commercial Microsoft 365 E3 adds Remote Help, Advanced Analytics, and Intune Plan 2, including Microsoft Tunnel for mobile application management, specialty device management, and firmware over-the-air updates for supported devices. Microsoft 365 E5 includes those capabilities plus Endpoint Privilege Management, Enterprise Application Management, and Microsoft Cloud PKI. The rollout is gradual, eligible tenants are automatically provisioned, and no action is required.

  Apple token setup guidance adopts “Apple Business” terminology

  The setup and renewal instructions now refer to Apple Business instead of Apple Business Manager, while Apple School Manager remains unchanged. The documented connection and server-token process is otherwise described the same way; the edit does not indicate a change to Intune behavior.

  macOS Company Portal instructions now specify the Applications folder

  After Company Portal finishes installing, the procedure now tells users to open Company Portal from the Applications folder. The step numbering was also corrected, making this a user guidance clarification rather than a documented product change.
