What Should I Check Before Deploying Microsoft Copilot?

Following this thread! I found the technical readiness section on https://adoption.microsoft.com/en-us/copilot/ but found it lacking as well. There’s also a risk assessment document here: https://servicetrust.microsoft.com/DocumentPage/4fe5df86-848b-4097-b3fa-4625e2b8e8f2. However, with various Copilot agents out there, like Azure AI Foundry agents and PowerApps, so it's tough to find a resource that comprehensively covers all delivery channels.

My supplier advised me to disable agent access for users without Copilot licenses. They warned that if a licensed user creates and shares an agent, it might cause excessive prompt credit consumption among those without licenses since every interaction could use up credits—like accessing SharePoint or opening files. I haven't seen this in action, but I figured it'd be better to play it safe and avoid surprising expenses later on. So, I'm okay with disabling those agents if it means dodging any unexpected bills.

Here's a great link to check out: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/training/paths/prepare-your-organization-microsoft-365-copilot/. It's packed with useful info, albeit it might not cover every single detail you're looking for. If you're looking for more hands-on support, my team is available to assist!
