Microsoft Licensing Consulting, Advisory & Training Services

Microsoft Licensing Consulting

Software licence terms can be extremely complex and most organisations do not have the in-house expertise to optimise spend, identify and mitigate risk, and maximise return on software investments.

We are specialists in Microsoft licensing and as we do not sell software licences we are uniquely positioned to provide truly independent and impartial advice.

Whilst our core Microsoft Licensing Services include Software Licence Reconciliation & Optimisation, Enterprise Agreement True-Up Advisory and Enterprise Agreement Renewal Advisory, we can help with any Microsoft licensing requirement no matter how big or small.

Microsoft Licensing Training Courses

Misinterpreted licence terms and insufficient in-house licensing knowledge are key causes of both non-compliance and overspending.

Each of our instructor-led training courses provide you with the in-house knowledge and expertise you need to make informed and strategic licensing decisions, identify and mitigate risk and optimise licence usage.

Our courses include Masters of Microsoft Licensing and Licensing Microsoft SQL Server and like the hundreds of participants that have already attended, you will learn everything you want to know and everything you need to know about Microsoft licensing.

What do our clients say about us?

“With a Microsoft Enterprise agreement up for renewal at the end of June 2020 we turned to Discover SAM to help us prepare. The work they did for us was a great help and the guidance they provided to navigate the minefield that is Microsoft licencing was a huge advantage.

With Microsoft’s licensing products and usage rules changing all the time, understanding how to best licence our organisation was an insurmountable task which Discover SAM took all the pain out for us.

Naturally, anxiety was high given the massive investment in Microsoft licencing over a three-year enterprise agreement term, so it was extremely important to us that we had the best knowledge to make the right selections for our council.

The work they did was outstanding to understand our existing licence consumption and the recommendations they made around the best fit licence models. All the rationale that supported our business case was excellent with recommendations presented to council directors and councillors for approval.

The work they did to help us determine the best value fit for our needs from the Microsoft 365 suite, factoring our future requirements around security and endpoint management was also extremely valuable.

The support they gave us also with negotiations with Microsoft around the interpretation of licence and software assurance entitlements rules was also amazing.

Massive thank you to Troy and the team for taking us through the process and for making it a smooth and painless one. We’ll be talking again in early 2023 for help with the next one.”

Masters of Microsoft Licensing Training Course

“You know you are in good hands and learning from the best at the business when your trainer spells the word ‘Licence’ accurately every time! I enrolled into this course with much unease since my background is not technical but the course content was so easy to follow. The trainer explained each topic at a level where every student was comfortable with the understanding.”

Shanaz Khan: BT Contracts and Procurement Administrator – CSL Limited
Masters of Microsoft Licensing Training Course for Enterprise Agreement Renewal

“The course was very insightful and thought provoking; so much so that the team re-cut the numbers to model the different product licensing options discussed – in short it was exactly what we were looking for to get everyone aligned and focused on task at hand. This is the course that all organisations should be looking at if they want to take control of their Microsoft environment and get the most from their entitlements, while minimising their financial exposure”
