What Microsoft 365 Policy Changes Are Happening?
Microsoft is ending open source licensing. What exactly does this mean for your business? You will not be able to buy or renew software licenses or online services through Microsoft directly. Instead, purchases of Office 365 can only be made through one of their Cloud Solutions Providers, or simply referred to as a CSP. Companies that are CSPs are licensed Microsoft Partners that handle various Microsoft products and services. It’s important to make the new license transition early before the changes become effective.

Buying Office 365 Licensing
If you are buying perpetual software licenses only without Software Assurance, the next course of action includes:
– Buy perpetual software licenses from only qualified Partners participating in the Cloud Solution Provider program by Microsoft.
– If you have perpetual licenses with software assurance, then, you will be able to use Office apps after the policy changes but not any online functions. However, this will limit the full capabilities of Office 365, including features such as Teams, SharePoint, and OneDrive.
If you have online services through Microsoft:
– Licenses will end on December 31, 2021. You will not be able to access and use Office 365 services that you previously had.
– If you want to continue using existing licenses or purchase future licenses, then you will need to contact a CSP Partner. They will be able to set up and handle your Office 365 licenses as they are the only source Microsoft will allow to do so.
Office 365 Discounts
As a Microsoft Partner, IGTech365 offers volume discounts on Office 365 licenses. If your organization has over twenty employees that use Office365, then you qualify for reduced pricing. IGTech365 is the Office 365 supplier for many businesses throughout a variety of industries. In addition to reduced pricing, we offer rapid local support on Microsoft licensing solutions at no additional cost! You no longer have to contact Microsoft support directly if anything in the Office suite gives you trouble. This improves employee downtime and lets you focus on what matters most, running your business.
Microsoft Teams
Microsoft Teams is a full-service phone system for the digital business environment. Teams helps reduce phone service costs as you don’t need a traditional phone system. It is available as part of certain Office 365 licenses. You get your own phone number and can take calls in the office or on the go. It works on desktop, mobile, and tablet. In addition, Teams integrates the rest of Office 365 so your team can collaborate with Word, Excel, and PowerPoint live during the call. You can also reach team members through text with Teams. It is your digital communication source for the modern business world. Teams is the perfect solution for any organization, whether employees work in the office or remotely.
