In addition to the features you receive with the E3 you’ll be receiving Advanced Security for your Data, Analytics tools with Power BI and Delve, PSTN Conferencing, and Cloud PBX for cloud-based call management to make, receive, and transfer calls across a wide range of devices. If that seemed like a lot of add-ons, you’ll be able to achieve all of the features (and some!) listed above from the E5. When you consider a full featured line from Comcast is $29.95 per line/per month Microsoft’s E3 with voice starts to make sense. All said and done, the E3 license with (domestic) voice equates to $44.00 per user per month. Sounds great right?! Well what about voice? To achieve full voice through E3, Cloud PBX comes in at $8.00, PSTN Conferencing for $4.00 and domestic calling for $12.00 or international for $24.00. In addition to these features you’ll receive Office Online, Office Client Apps and NEW Archiving, Rights Management, Data Loss Prevention, and Encryption. With the E3 license you’ll receive business class email and calendars, Task Management such as Yammer, SharePoint Online, Skype for Business for IM and Online Meetings, OneDrive for Business for personal storage. The E3 license comes in at $20.00 per user per month.

As of December 1 st, 2015 Microsoft has consolidated voice with the Office products they’ve become known for over the years.
