About this licence
Microsoft Office 365 E1 – 12-Month Cloud Productivity for the Modern Enterprise
Microsoft Office 365 E1 is a 12-month cloud subscription that delivers the essential communication and collaboration infrastructure your organisation needs, without the overhead of locally installed desktop applications. Instead of traditional software, you equip your workforce with a powerful set of always-up-to-date web and mobile apps, a 50 GB professional business email mailbox, and 1 TB of personal cloud storage per user. This genuine, EU-licensed digital product from Lizensa is the strategic choice for IT leaders who want to centralise management, strengthen security, and enable seamless teamwork across every device—from a shared warehouse terminal to an executive’s tablet.
The core value of Office 365 E1 lies in its ability to provide enterprise-grade services at a predictable annual cost. It is purpose-built for organisations migrating from on-premises Exchange servers, equipping frontline or deskless workers, or adopting a cloud-first strategy where the browser is the primary workspace. By activating this 12-month subscription through your Microsoft tenant, you gain immediate access to Exchange Online, Microsoft Teams, SharePoint Online, and OneDrive for Business, all managed from a single admin console and backed by Microsoft’s EU data residency commitments.
Key Features and Benefits
Professional Business Email with Exchange Online – Give every user a 50 GB primary mailbox and a 50 GB online archive on your own custom domain. Built-in anti-malware and anti-spam filtering protect your communications, while shared calendars and contacts keep teams synchronised without third-party add-ons.
Microsoft Teams for Unified Collaboration – Host video conferences with up to 300 participants, share screens, and co-author files in real time. Persistent, searchable chat history and channel-based organisation replace fragmented email threads, creating a single hub for teamwork.
1 TB OneDrive for Business per User – Each user receives a personal cloud library that syncs files across Windows, macOS, iOS, and Android. Secure external sharing, offline access, and IT-defined policies ensure data stays protected while remaining accessible anywhere.
SharePoint Online Intranet and Document Management – Build team sites, department portals, and company-wide intranets to store, version, and co-author documents. Metadata-driven libraries and automated workflows reduce manual filing and accelerate approval processes.
Web and Mobile Versions of Core Office Apps – Outlook, Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and OneNote run in any modern browser and on mobile devices. Users can create, edit, and comment on documents without installing desktop software, which cuts licence costs and hardware overhead.

Office Versions Compared – Which One Should You Buy?
Choosing the right Microsoft licence depends on how your team works. Here is how Office 365 E1 compares to other common options:
Office 365 E1 vs. Microsoft 365 Business Basic – Both are cloud-first subscriptions with email, Teams, and OneDrive. Business Basic includes the same core services but is capped at 300 users and is designed for smaller businesses. Office 365 E1 has no user limit and includes enterprise compliance tools like eDiscovery and DLP that Business Basic lacks.
Office 365 E1 vs. Microsoft 365 E3 – E3 is the next step up. It includes everything in E1 plus the full desktop Office apps for installation on up to five PCs or Macs per user, Windows Enterprise licence, and advanced security features like Microsoft Defender for Endpoint. Choose E1 if you only need cloud services; choose E3 if you need desktop apps and advanced security.
Office 365 E1 vs. Office 2021 Professional – Office 2021 Professional is a one-time, perpetual purchase for one PC. It includes desktop Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and Outlook, but it has no cloud services, no Teams, no hosted email, and no OneDrive storage. It is ideal for a single offline user. Office 365 E1 is a multi-user, cloud-based service for organisations.
Who is Office 365 E1 best for? It is the ideal plan for enterprises, non-profits, and educational institutions that need enterprise-grade email and collaboration for a large number of users who primarily work from a browser or mobile device. It is a perfect fit for frontline workers, shared-device environments, and organisations with strict cloud-only IT policies.
System Requirements and Compatibility
Office 365 E1 is a cloud service, so its requirements are minimal compared to traditional software. The service is accessed primarily through a supported web browser or mobile app.
Operating Systems – Compatible with Windows, macOS, iOS, and Android. The web apps work on any modern browser (Microsoft Edge, Chrome, Firefox, Safari).
Hardware – A device with at least 4 GB of RAM (8 GB recommended) and 4 GB of available storage for the mobile apps and local caching.
Architecture – Supports both 32-bit and 64-bit environments where applicable for the mobile and sync clients.
Internet – An active internet connection is required for activation, service access, and real-time collaboration.
Languages – The service interface and apps are available in English, German, French, Dutch, and Polish, among many others.
Note: Exact system requirements can vary by service update. We recommend validating the latest specifications against the official Microsoft documentation before a large-scale deployment.
Installation and Activation
Activating your Office 365 E1 subscription is a straightforward process managed by your IT administrator. There are no desktop installation files to download or complex setup wizards to run.
Receive Your Licence – After your purchase, Lizensa instantly sends a genuine licence key and activation instructions to your email address.
Access Your Microsoft Tenant – Your administrator logs into the Microsoft 365 admin centre. If you do not yet have a tenant, the guide will walk you through creating one.
Redeem and Assign – The administrator redeems the subscription and assigns the licence to a user account. The cloud services (email, Teams, OneDrive) become available immediately.
Configure Services – The administrator can then configure Exchange Online, SharePoint, and Teams policies to match your organisation’s security and compliance needs.
Because this is a cloud subscription, there is no traditional reinstallation process. The licence is valid for 12 consecutive months from the activation date. If a user gets a new device, they simply sign into their account via the web or mobile app.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is this a subscription or a one-time purchase?
This is a 12-month annual subscription licence. To continue using the services after the term ends, you must renew the subscription. Lizensa will notify you before your licence expires.
Does Office 365 E1 include the desktop versions of Word, Excel, and PowerPoint?
No. Office 365 E1 includes the web browser and mobile app versions of these applications only. If you need the full desktop apps for offline work, consider Microsoft 365 Business Standard or Microsoft 365 E3.
What is the difference between this and a retail licence?
This is an annual subscription licence managed through a Microsoft tenant, not a retail product key for a single PC. It is designed for organisational use with centralised IT administration, not for individual consumers.
How fast will I receive my licence key?
Your genuine Microsoft Office 365 E1 licence key and activation instructions are delivered digitally by email in under 60 seconds on average after a successful payment.
Is this a genuine and legal licence?
Absolutely. Lizensa supplies only 100% genuine, verified licences sourced from authorised European distribution channels. You receive a full VAT invoice and are protected by EU consumer law.
What if I have trouble activating the subscription?
Lizensa provides free, multilingual technical support. Our EU-based team can assist your IT administrator with the activation process and any provisioning questions you may have.
Can I reinstall or transfer this licence?
As a cloud subscription, there is nothing to reinstall. The licence is assigned to a user account in your Microsoft tenant. You can reassign the licence to a different user within your organisation if a person leaves or changes roles.
Does this work in my country?
Yes, your activation is valid across all 27 EU member states. The services are cloud-based and accessible from anywhere with an internet connection.
What payment methods do you accept?
Our Stripe-secured checkout supports SEPA bank transfers, iDEAL, BLIK, Google Pay, and all major credit and debit cards.
Do you provide a VAT invoice?

What is your refund policy?
You have a 14-day right of refund on your purchase, in accordance with EU consumer protection regulations, provided the licence has not been activated or redeemed.
Can I use this licence on a terminal server or with Remote Desktop Services (RDS)?
No. Because Office 365 E1 does not include desktop applications, there are no programs to install on a terminal server. Users access the service through a web browser or mobile apps.
