Microsoft to raise enterprise prices in UK as pound plunges

Microsoft plans to increase prices for some enterprise services by up to 22 per cent in Britain following the plunge in the pound, likely hitting thousands of companies and government departments who rely on its cloud and software products. Microsoft said it would increase prices for its enterprise software by 13 per cent and for its cloud services by 22 per cent from January 1 next year, becoming the latest tech company to raise fees in the wake of the vote to leave the European Union.
