White Paper

Side-by-Side Comparison of Microsoft Azure Purchasing through a Microsoft Enterprise Agreement (EA) and the Microsoft CSP Program

A Microsoft Enterprise Agreement (Microsoft EA) was once the go-to licensing vehicle for large organizations with over 500 seats. However, the complex, 3-year agreement that was once so popular is becoming obsolete. With cloud-based services like Azure and Office 365 becoming the norm, even large organizations are shifting how they purchase products and services, and looking for more flexible Microsoft Volume Licensing options.

EA VS. CSP

When to Choose CSP?

Forecasted Azure consumption does not meet threshold spend to gain any significant price discounts within an Enterprise Agreement (EA)

Up front commitments required to an Azure EA spend do not meet your business practices or needs

Seasonal or unpredictable O365 or Azure consumption requirements result in unpredictable spikes

Require reporting for Charge Back or Show Back for your Azure or Office 365 spend

Support needed services beyond Microsoft’s Azure Help desk
