| Benefits |
 |
EES licensing offers participating institutions the benefits of:
- Easy compliance. Through the simplicity and predictability of counting FTE employees just once per year, you can be confident that you are fully covered for the desktop platform products you’ve selected, regardless of yearly fluctuations in employees or devices.
- Customized solutions. Easily add additional products—either organization-wide, department-wide, or for individual licenses—at any time during your subscription term, so you can deliver the right mix of technology and services to your faculty, staff, and students.
- Simplified asset management. Self-service tools, such as the Volume Licensing Service Center, enable you to easily track and manage your software assets and Software Assurance benefits from one convenient, online location.
- Low administration. Subscription licensing eliminates the need to track licenses for the selected desktop platform products on every PC and enables your IT staff to be more productive, since they no longer have to track multiple licenses across the institution.
- Lower total cost of ownership. Realize the maximum value from your licensing investment with included benefits, such as access to current technology, work at home rights for faculty and staff, product evaluation rights, Software Assurance for Microsoft Volume Licensing, and Microsoft Live@edu.
- Student licensing. Through the Student Option, you can license your students for use of one or more of the available EES products on a personally owned computer or on an institution-owned computer designated for a student's exclusive use (for instance, a computer checked out to a student for the school year).
| Acquiring EES coverage |
|
Depending upon the size of your organization, you may acquire EES subscription licenses through:
- A Microsoft Authorized Education Reseller (AER) (for organizations with five or more FTE employees).
- A Microsoft Large Account Reseller (LAR) (for organizations with 1,000 or more FTE employees).
These resellers are authorized to sell Microsoft academic edition products and volume licenses to qualified education users. To participate in EES or any of our other academic volume licensing programs, or to obtain current pricing, please contact an AER or LAR. Find a reseller.
