Which plan to pickIf you already pay for Claude, you have it. Try it on Free first, and move to Pro once you're making more than the odd document, because decks use up a Free allowance fast. Team makes sense when colleagues need to open and comment on the same documents.If your business is on a Microsoft 365 Business plan, Copilot Business is the one to trial, and only for the people who live in Outlook, Teams and Word all day. Don't buy it for everyone on day one. Check the current per-user price on Microsoft's site, because it changes with promotions.Start on Free, which is enough to decide if the editor suits you. A solo consultant should move to Plus for clean PowerPoint exports. A sales team of three or more should go straight to Team for the shared credits and viewer tracking.

Pros and cons

AttributeClaude Docs & SlidesMicrosoft 365 CopilotPitch
Pros
  • No extra subscription if you already use Claude, and Free can try it
  • The document or deck comes out of the same chat that did the research
  • Edit directly or by asking, without copying text into another app
  • Exports to the formats clients and colleagues already use
  • Report and deck stay consistent because they come from one conversation
  • Deepest connection to company email, files and meetings of any tool here
  • Meeting recaps in Teams save real hours
  • Excel help makes data approachable for non-analysts
  • Enterprise security and permissions come built in
  • Agents can be built without a developer
  • Best collaboration features in the category
  • Templates and brand controls that non-designers can follow
  • Viewer analytics tell you what happens after you hit send
  • Free plan is enough for small teams to work in
  • Desktop apps and a clean, fast editor
Cons
  • No brand templates in Slides, so decks look generic next to Claude Design or Gamma
  • Rewriting a long doc eats your Claude usage limits quickly, especially on Free and Pro
  • Rough edges on complex formatting, and co-editing and version history are lighter than Google Docs
  • Decks are starting to look recognisably "made by Claude" to clients
  • Sometimes makes a Claude Doc when you wanted a plain Word file, and docs don't flow back into Project knowledge
  • An add-on cost on top of your existing licence, so it adds up fast
  • Writing quality is flatter than Claude or ChatGPT
  • Results suffer if your files and SharePoint are disorganised
  • Pricing and plan names change often and are hard to follow
  • Can be slow in large tenants
  • AI credits are modest and the free batch never renews
  • Free plan exports carry Pitch branding and skip PowerPoint
  • Pricing is in euros, so your bill moves with the exchange rate
  • Fewer AI design flourishes than Gamma, so drafts need more hands-on work
