Volume Licensing

Microsoft offers volume licensing programs to help reduce administrative overhead and software-management costs for your organization, while enabling product licensing on an ongoing basis at considerable discounts. The various licensing options enable you to choose the program that works best for your management and operational needs.

Enrollment for Core Infrastructure (ECI)

Enrollment for Core Infrastructure

The Enterprise Enrollment lets you standardize on the familiar Microsoft tools you use every day, and move them beyond the desktop to equip devices and users where they are needed. With the Enterprise Enrollment, you can choose to run PC and device software and cloud services across your organization. Such organization-wide implementations help you reduce device and user management and support costs, and also provide additional pricing advantages above the standard volume pricing levels.
