You’ve invested in Microsoft Copilot.
You’ve talked to your team about how it saves time, boosts productivity, and makes daily work easier.
But here’s the real question…
Is your team actually using it?
Or is Copilot sitting there, unused, while everyone goes back to old habits?
Microsoft has a new way to answer that.
What Is Microsoft Copilot Benchmarks?
Microsoft Copilot Benchmarks is a new dashboard inside Viva Insights, part of Microsoft 365.
It shows you how your team is really using Copilot.
Not guesses. Not assumptions. Real data.
You can see:
How many users actively use Copilot
Which apps they use it in (Outlook, Word, Teams, etc.)
How often they come back to it
This gives leaders a clear view of what’s working and what’s not.
Why Microsoft Copilot Benchmarks Matters
Most companies struggle with AI adoption.
In fact, studies show that only about 5% of AI pilot programs ever move past testing. The problem isn’t the tools. It’s habits, training, and culture.
Microsoft Copilot Benchmarks helps fix that.
It shows exactly where adoption is stalling so you can:
Identify teams that need more training
Learn from teams using Copilot well
Prove ROI on your Copilot investment
How Benchmarking Works (and Why It’s Safe)
You can also compare your usage against similar businesses.
That includes companies:
Of the same size
In the same industry
In the same region
Worried about privacy?
Microsoft says all comparison data is anonymous, grouped, and protected using strict privacy controls. No individual data is exposed.
This Isn’t About Policing Employees
Yes, some employees may feel nervous at first.
But this isn’t about punishment.
It’s about progress.
When you can see who’s struggling, you can offer support instead of guessing. And when teams succeed, you can repeat what works.
Final Thought
AI is no longer optional.
But just buying Copilot isn’t enough.
If you want real results, you need visibility.
Microsoft Copilot Benchmarks gives you that visibility.
And soon, you won’t have to guess if your team is using AI well.
You’ll know.
