Microsoft Entra ID Pricing FAQ

01 What's the difference between Microsoft Entra ID and Azure AD?

They're the same service. Microsoft rebranded Azure Active Directory as Microsoft Entra ID in July 2023. Tenant IDs, APIs, and PowerShell cmdlets remain unchanged — only the marketing name moved.

02 Is Microsoft Entra ID free?

Yes — Entra ID Free is included with every Microsoft cloud subscription (Microsoft 365, Azure, Dynamics 365). It covers basic user/group management and SSO for up to 10 pre-integrated apps. Conditional access, MFA, and identity protection require P1 ($6/user/month) or P2 ($9/user/month).

03 What is the Microsoft Entra Suite?

Entra Suite, launched 2024, bundles Entra Internet Access, Private Access, ID Governance, and Verified ID premium features for $12/user/month on top of P1. It's Microsoft's identity-led answer to SSE/SASE.

04 Do I need P2 to use Privileged Identity Management?

Yes. PIM and Identity Protection (risk-based conditional access, anomaly detection) are P2-only features. P1 stops at standard conditional access.
