With the public sector season procurement round in full swing, now is the time to highlight the benefits of Microsoft subscription licensing – for customers and for you.


By persuading public sector customers to switch over to subscription licensing, you’ll be delivering really positive benefits both to them and to your own business.


For education, healthcare and government, moving onto a Software Assurance subscription licence will mean they get product updates whenever they are available, so they can always be sure of getting the best performance and productivity; they’ll benefit from improved planning, deployment options and support too;


and they’ll have access to enhanced training resources.


For resellers, getting more customers onto subscription licensing means more customers who are committed to you as a Microsoft Partner, and a predictable annual flow of income from annuity licensing revenues.


For you and for your customer, Software Assurance subscription licensing simply makes sense.
