Overview
Microsoft Copilot for Microsoft 365 brings AI capabilities directly into Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook, and Teams. For Irish businesses already using Microsoft 365, Copilot offers the smoothest adoption path with minimal workflow disruption. Crucially for GDPR-conscious Irish businesses, Microsoft offers an EU Data Boundary commitment, meaning Copilot data for EU customers is processed and stored within the EU. This makes it one of the strongest choices for Irish businesses with strict data residency requirements. Copilot requires an existing Microsoft 365 Business Standard or Enterprise licence, with Copilot priced as an add-on per user per month in EUR.
