Hello!
When I want to get a business plan started it seems that the only option is that it forces the onmicrosoft domain to you. But for example if a create and a personal account I can create it with a custom email straight away.
I can see that it reccomends using the DNS-server to get using your own domain... but is there a way to bypass all that and just create a business acount with your own email ?
All I need is a business email and a few apps
Business Email
Logging into windows 11 with a microsoft business account
Should I go with Microsoft 365 or Google workspace?
Is Outlook email free for business?
Microsoft Outlook offers a free plan, but it doesn’t come with a custom domain (only an @outlook.com one), which may not be suitable for business use. It also only accommodates one user. Microsoft 365’s business plans start at $6 a month and let you use a custom email domain (e.g., [email protected]) and add multiple users to your organization. It also comes with the Microsoft Office productivity suite, including Word, Excel, and PowerPoint.
Should I use Outlook or Gmail for business email?
Use Outlook for your business email if you need a lot of email and cloud storage. Microsoft provides up to 50GB of mail storage and 1TB of cloud storage on all its Business plans. It’s also a good option for more productivity tools like a collaborative workspace or online video editor. Choose Gmail if you want an easier setup process and beginner-friendly interface or are more familiar with the Google Workspace productivity suite.
How do I create a professional email in Outlook?
To create a professional email in Outlook, you’ll first need to subscribe to a Microsoft 365 Business plan, which lets you add a custom domain to your email account to get a branded email address and not a generic “@outlook.com” one. After subscribing to a Microsoft 365 plan, create your new email address and finish setting up your account by adding a custom domain, inviting your team members, and installing the Microsoft 365 platform on your computer.

I am only familiar with domain controller logins and personal logins to windows. I seem to stuck in some strange place and I can’t seem to find an answer.
We have microsoft office 365 accounts from godaddy. If I reload a computer and the oobe asks if I want a school or office account. I choose that and give my work email, it forwards over to godaddy and asks for password. I login in the world is happy. office 365 everything is setup and working.
My issue is adding other users to that same computer. If I go into Add Other Users I see my AzureAD\username I click on add user and put in another email address. It only asks for admin or standard user. I will add the AzureAD\newuser that it got from just the email. so It’s talking to the server??? I log out and try to login with that email I get wrong password or username error. I tried just the username and AzureAD\newuser and still nothing.
If I kick of oobe again I can set it up with the newuser and get logged in and the world is happy. I can even see the original account I setup… but cant log in as that account.
Am I not setting up the account correctly? What is happening?
Thanks to anyone who has input.

At the login screen is there an option for other user or something like that where a new user could login? If not it sounds like that computer isn’t properly joined to Azure Active Directory or entra whatever they are calling it today.
