Benefits of the Program | This licensing program is designed based on direct feedback from our service provider partners. Benefits include: | Most Current Product Versions: With SPLA, service providers have access to the most current versions of the products available in the Program for one simple monthly price. Download your licensed products at no charge instead of ordering physical media. Flexible Cost Structure: The SPLA offers a monthly usage-based cost. Therefore you pay only for what was made available the previous month. Pricing Stability: SPLA price changes (if any) will only occur on an annual basis in January. Use Rights Protection: The Services Provider Use Rights (SPUR) document details all product use rights for this program. Product use rights are specific to each version and will not change for the duration of the program. Cash Flow Management: With SPLA, service providers have near zero start-up costs, since they only pay for licenses based on what they made available to provide services each month. Academic SKUs: Academic pricing on selected server products is available when service providers deploy services to Qualified Education Customers. Worldwide Distribution: Use Microsoft software products to sell your services to customers in any part of the world, where allowed, regardless of your location.
