Fisch Solutions (845-237-0000) has announced a new guide for Hudson Valley businesses, outlining the Microsoft 365 price increases taking effect in July 2026 and identifying the steps local organizations can take to reduce the financial impact before the deadline.
-- Managed IT provider Fisch Solutions, based in the Hudson Valley, has announced a new guide addressing the Microsoft 365 price increases scheduled for July 1, 2026. The resource covers every affected plan tier, explains what the increases mean in practical terms for local businesses, and outlines specific actions that organizations can take before the deadline to limit the cost impact.

With the July deadline quickly approaching, the guide was developed for Hudson Valley businesses that are unsure how to respond to the changes. Fisch Solutions notes that many organizations have done little since Microsoft first announced the updates in December 2025, and that a clear plan before the cutoff can make a meaningful difference to annual software costs.
Microsoft confirmed that new commercial pricing applies to Business, Enterprise, and Frontline plans from July 1, 2026, with increases ranging from 5% on the E5 tier to as high as 43% on certain Frontline configurations. Microsoft 365 Business Basic rises from $6.00 to $7.00 per user per month, while Business Standard climbs from $12.50 to $14.00.
For organizations with larger teams, those numbers compound quickly. A business running 50 seats on Business Standard faces roughly $900 in additional annual software costs from the price change alone, with no action taken. The Fisch Solutions guide addresses this directly, walking through early renewal options, license auditing, and plan tier adjustments that can each help offset the increases before new rates take effect.
"A lot of businesses see the per-user increase and assume it's not worth worrying about," a Fisch Solutions spokesperson explains. "When you do the math across a full team and a full year, it tells a different story. The guide is intended to give Hudson Valley businesses a clear picture of what they're actually facing, and what they can realistically do about it before July."
