Microsoft
Volume Licensing programs
serve organizations that acquire
five or more licenses, but
do not need multiple copies
of the media and the documentation,
and do not want to keep track
of numerous individual license
agreements. Volume Licensing
offers the potential for substantial
savings, ease of deployment,
flexible acquisition, varied
payment options, and other
benefits, such as ongoing
maintenance. Microsoft has
Volume Licensing programs
that are tailored to the specific
needs of your customers, based
on program type, organization
size, and market segment. |
