Another way of looking at the move is that it allows Microsoft to bring those identity and access solutions to the attention of some organizations who wouldn’t otherwise consider them. Every time you open the Entra admin center, identity governance and other solutions will be there to discover. To be fair to Microsoft, if you access Azure AD from the Microsoft 365 admin center, the link goes direct to the Azure AD section of the Entra admin center.
Microsoft says that the old Azure AD admin center will continue to function until May 2023. Azure customers who don’t use Microsoft 365 can manage Azure AD through the Azure portal.
Many Rebranding Campaigns Microsoft is well known for its love of rebranding campaigns. Microsoft 365 has steadily embraced a huge ecosystem, including the subscription version of the Office apps, and we’ll probably have to rename the next version of the Office 365 for IT Pros eBook to use Microsoft 365 instead. Microsoft Purview is another example, albeit one that at least collected together a bunch of different compliance solutions under a common banner. Defender did the same for security solutions, and so on.
