Pioneering Productivity: MIT Sloan's Journey with Microsoft 365 Copilot

Dan Alexander and Saul Horowitz (MIT Sloan)

We’ll provide a high-level overview and comparison of Microsoft 365 Copilot experiences with demos that showcase the features of both Microsoft 365 Copilot Chat, a tool available to the community at no cost, and Microsoft 365 Copilot, a paid subscription product. We’ll also share our experience from running a 6-month early adopter program for the paid product, discussing how we managed the project, the metrics we tracked, key findings, and our next steps.
