Our Microsoft Partner Designations
The Problem
You renew Microsoft licensing every year without knowing what's sitting unused.
Your Enterprise Agreement is changing, and nobody has mapped what replaces it.
Azure spend keeps climbing, and nobody can say which workloads drive it.
What We Do
Licensing optimization
We map what you own against what your people use, then right-size before renewal.
EA to CSP transitions
A planned move off the Enterprise Agreement, with pricing and terms laid out before you sign.
Azure cost optimization
Find the workloads driving spend, then fix sizing, reservations, and savings plans.
Cloud FinOps
Budgets, alerts, and cost attribution, so every dollar of Azure spend has an owner.
Cloud Solution Provider (CSP)
Licensing through CloudServus, with support from engineers who know your environment.

Our Take
Microsoft pricing is complex. That's not an accident.
Most organizations overpay Microsoft by 20-40% because, let's face it, licensing is genuinely complex. Most partners are not nearly proactive enough in helping customers 'understand the rules of the game' to identify cost-savings. This is where we come in. We offer a full licensing analysis at no cost, because we do this in our sleep. We'll review every angle of your licensing posture to ensure programmatic fit, SKU assignment, review relevant changes with cost-implications, and identify cost-savings for your organization. It's the fastest money most clients ever save, and it usually funds the more interesting work above.

FAQ
Questions about Microsoft licensing and cost
What is Microsoft subscription and cost management?
It's the work of matching what you pay Microsoft to what your organization uses: right-sizing Microsoft 365 and Azure licenses, choosing the right purchasing program, and keeping Azure consumption under control with budgets, reservations, and cost attribution.
What's the difference between an Enterprise Agreement and CSP?
An Enterprise Agreement is a multi-year commitment bought directly from Microsoft. The Cloud Solution Provider program buys through a partner like CloudServus, with month-to-month or annual terms and support from the partner. Which fits depends on your size, your terms, and how Microsoft is changing the EA for your segment.
How much do organizations overpay for Microsoft licensing?
In our experience most organizations overpay Microsoft by 20 to 40 percent, usually through unused seats, licenses above what a role needs, and Azure resources sized for peak load. A licensing assessment shows where your spend sits.
What does a Microsoft licensing assessment include?
A review of every Microsoft license you own against actual usage and role needs, your current purchasing agreements, and your renewal dates, with a plan to right-size before you renew.
