• What is SPLA?
• The Microsoft® Services Provider License Agreement (SPLA) enables services providers and independent software vendors (ISVs) to license Microsoft licensed products on a monthly basis over a three-year agreement term and to use these products to provide software services and hosted applications to their customers.
• How the SPLA differs from Other Microsoft Volume Licensing Agreements?
• Other Microsoft Volume Licensing programs—such as Enterprise Agreement, Select License, and Open License—do not allow commercial hosting of Microsoft licensed products. In contrast, the SPLA is designed specifically for services providers so that you can deliver software services to your customers, or even to third parties. As a result, your customers do not have to acquire their own licensed products. For Internet café business, the SPLA provides your customers with access to and use of any licensed product, Microsoft or otherwise.
• Are there any upfront fee required to sign the SPLA?
• No, there are no upfront program fees associated with signing the SPLA. However, Microsoft Certified Partner Membership is a requirement of the program. Service providers who are not a Microsoft Certified Partner should contact Microsoft's SPLA authorized reseller for assistance in signing up to the program.
