As always the team here at Yellowbus are working hard to ensure we provide our clients with the best products to fit both the client’s needs and budgets. This is done by continually assessing and reassessing solutions available in the marketplace covering a wide range of topics.
A pain point for many clients is the ability to scale up and down quickly, not just with computer equipment but also with software licensing i.e. to scale up your workforce by 10% meant also supplying them with products like Microsoft Office and other products which are sold per unit or per year.
Products sold in this way have many issues for clients who continue to scale up and also clients who scale up for special projects and scale down when projects are completed as both require some form of license management to ensure continual license adherence and compliance.
As a company, we not only listen to our clients we try and action improvements and as such the feedback regarding Microsoft licensing was fed back to Microsoft and as a result Yellowbus were offered the opportunity to join Microsoft’s invite only, Cloud Service Provider program.
I’m pleased to announce that after months of hard work, Yellowbus are now a Tier 1 Microsoft Cloud Service Provider and a Microsoft SPLA Partner.
How does this help solve the licensing problem and what does this mean for our clients?
Quite simply this means that Yellowbus can now offer tailored solutions to clients based on all Microsoft cloud products like Azure & 365 and on premise products like operating systems and desktop applications and crucially, bill for usage on a monthly basis. Additional benefits are:
- Ease of workforce mobilisation
- Reduced license management overhead
