Microsoft Office
Microsoft Office licensing, perpetual or subscription
Both models remain available, and the right one depends far more on how long you keep a release than on the headline price.
A perpetual Office licence costs more up front and nothing thereafter. A subscription costs less initially and always runs the current release. Over a five-year horizon, perpetual with one mid-cycle upgrade is usually cheaper for organisations that do not need current features.
The factor that most often forces the decision is not cost but file format compatibility with clients and suppliers. If you exchange documents with people on current versions, staying several releases behind eventually stops being a choice.
Choosing between them
Perpetual is the better fit when
Budget is capital rather than operating, machines are replaced on a long cycle, cloud services are not required, or the system is regulated and any change requires revalidation.
Subscription is the better fit when
You also need business email and cloud storage, staff work across several devices, headcount changes regularly, or you want the licence to follow the person rather than the machine.

Frequently asked questions
Can you transfer our existing Microsoft tenant to your billing?
Yes. Moving the billing relationship to a Cloud Solution Provider is an administrative change. Your tenant, data, configuration and users are unaffected, and there is no downtime.
Do you supply both subscription and perpetual Microsoft licensing?
Yes. Subscriptions through CSP, and perpetual licences such as Windows Server, SQL Server and Office LTSC through volume licensing. We will price both where both are viable for your scenario.
Can seat counts be reduced mid-term?
Additions can be made at any time. Reductions take effect at the subscription anniversary, which is why the renewal date is the point at which a genuine review is worth doing.
