Microsoft is relaunching its free Copilot for businesses as Microsoft 365 Copilot Chat today, complete with the ability to use AI agents.

Wipro also works with customers to calculate their overall ROI and then create a viable value proposition for adopting Microsoft 365 Copilot. This helps clients clearly see how their investments would result in enhanced productivity across the different personas linked to each Microsoft app, enabling them to make an informed decision.
