Explanation

Some Microsoft software and online service products are available in multiple editions (i.e. lower edition and higher edition). Examples of this are, Exchange Server is offered as the lower edition Exchange Server Standard and the higher level edition Exchange Server Enterprise, or Exchange Online is offered as Exchange Online Plan 1 and Exchange Online Plan 2. The Step-up License makes it easier for you to move from a lower level edition to a higher level edition without incurring the full cost of licensing two separate editions of the product
