If you are depressed about your company buying Microsoft 365 Copilot (the one for Office - I know they have multiple products with the same product name) or Security Copilot, don’t be.

Companies are very good at buying Microsoft products and then never deploying them properly, and/or renewing them without using them.

Enterprise IT is basically a yearly cycle of “do we need to renew this PO?” followed by “I dunno if anybody uses it but just renew it in case they do or politics”.

I’ve talked to loads of orgs who renew Darktrace each year, knowing nobody uses it, as the CISO has too much political capital to lose by admitting they purchased a turkey.

Microsoft IT had a load of products they renew which they didn’t use either. Nexthink was one. 🤷‍♀️
