Microsoft is proposing concessions for up to ten years to address antitrust concerns from the European Commission regarding its practice of bundling Teams with Office 365 and Microsoft 365. These concessions include making Teams available at a reduced price, allowing customers to buy productivity suites without Teams, improving interoperability with competitors, and enabling data portability for clients. These actions come after significant user complaints and a formal investigation that found Microsoft's previous bundling practices hindered competition, violating EU regulations.
Microsoft has proposed ten-year concessions to appease EU regulators regarding antitrust concerns, particularly about its bundling of Teams with productivity applications.
