Microsoft New Commerce Experience
Microsoft New Commerce Experience
Everything you need to know!
Microsoft has recently announced a change in how customers purchase and manage their licences through their Cloud Solution Provider (CSP) Program. In January 2022, Microsoft has launched New Commerce Experience (NCE). This change will impact the way you purchase Microsoft 365 licences.
Monthly subscription
With the NCE you will have the ability to purchase your Microsoft 365 licences on a monthly basis without an annual commitment.
Microsoft is now offering this to provide flexibility to customers that need to make monthly changes to their Microsoft 365 or Office 365 licences plans and seat count. This subscription does come at a 20% price increase across all licence plans.
12 month subscription
Through the NCE, you’ll have the opportunity to commit to your licences through a 12 month subscription.
With the 12 month subscription, your pricing will be locked in for the entire term – allowing you to benefit from the additional cost savings of any price increases due in that time. This subscription will allow you to increase but not decrease the seat count.
36 month subscription
Microsoft is introducing a Multi Year Pricing to the NCE, allowing you to secure a 3 year pricing for longer term licencing commitments.
With this subscription, you’ll have the option to be billed monthly, annually or upfront. This subscription will allow you to increase but not decrease the seat count.
