Microsoft

Our recommendation is to use a minimum of:

Business Basic

E1 license

Also helpful is the suggested but not required Active Directory P1 licensing. Azure Active Directory Premium P1 (P1 or higher) provides access to the MFA report and SSPR status for users. AAD P1 can be added to any subscription as a standalone add-on. If you want Azure P1 included in the subscription you must sell Business Premium or E3. Be aware that while one AAD P1 per tenant works, Microsoft's policy is that every user must have an AAD P1.

Google Workspace

A Google Workspace license that supports third-party integrations is required. Third-party integrations are supported by the following:

Google Workspace Enterprise

Business (Starter, Standard, and Plus)

Education (Fundamentals, Standard, Plus)

Cloud Identity Premium

Google Workspace Essentials Starter and "Enterprise Essentials" licenses do not support third-party integration and won't connect to SaaS Alerts.
