Enrollments for the Enterprise Agreement
The Microsoft Enterprise Agreement helps make costs more predictable, simplifies asset management, and offers access to additional technology, services, and support. Microsoft is extending the value of the Enterprise Agreement by creating new enrollments that support software innovation and reflect customer purchasing preferences.
Enrollments are a cost-effective way to standardize software purchases. There are two enrollments now available to customers:
Enrollment for Application Platform (EAP) and Enrollment for Core Infrastructure (ECI).
