Where the other one is stronger
Copilot is stronger if your company already works entirely in Microsoft 365: it sits inside Word, Excel, Outlook, Teams and SharePoint and uses the permissions and Purview governance you already run. Microsoft also lists ISO 27001 and ISO 42001.[2]
Which one fits you?
Copilot fits if your team spends the day in Outlook, Teams and Word and Microsoft 365 Business is licensed anyway.
Verselo fits if your team does not only work in Microsoft, if you want per-person budgets and if you want a fixed contact and a workshop for the rollout. Microsoft 365 connects as a source, and in Word, Excel, PowerPoint and Outlook Verselo works through its Office add-in.
