Microsoft - Open Licensing
Microsoft Open License
Open License is a good choice for organizations that want to acquire at least five licenses with one license agreement for all orders; prefer to pay as they go; appreciate the advantages of Volume Licensing, such as downgrade rights and easier license management; do not mind paying up front for their software licenses; want increased savings over retail prices; want the option to acquire licenses without having maintenance automatically added; want the flexibility to grow with evolving business needs; and want easier compliance management with electronic license management. In addition, qualifying customers who need a large volume of software can use pools and points to acquire licenses with additional savings and an established price level for additional acquisitions over the agreement term.
