Microsoft Open License Basics – A New Series I’ll Be Posting On The Blog

Over the past several weeks, I have been speaking with many Partners and customers through the Blog, on the phone, through email, on Twitter, on Facebook, face to face, and more about various items relating to the Open Licensing Programs that Microsoft offers. Several of the conversations have begun around VLSC; however, many of them have come down to questions about the Open Licensing Programs themselves, how they work, mis-conceptions, etc. As such, I thought I would put up a series of posts in the near future surrounding several of the topics that came up in these conversations I have been having so that hopefully many of you can take away some pieces of knowledge that can help you as you sell and purchase solutions through the Microsoft Open Licensing Programs.

To make it easier to find these specific posts, I will begin the title of them with, “Microsoft Open License Basics” and then the topic/question to be covered. This way, it is easy to identify them at a glance when looking at the various posts on the Blog. If you have specific questions that you think would be good to add to this series that you would like to see become one of the Microsoft Open License Basics posts, please submit it to me through the comments section below.

If you found this post helpful, you may want to view other posts in my Microsoft Open License Basics series.

Thank you and have a wonderful day,
