Stay in control with CSP
At Change It, we know Microsoft licencing can be daunting and feel restrictive, creating a feeling of being locked in. CSP is designed to change that.
Here at change we will take the pain out of cloud licencing and give you a flexible contract that is defined on your terms. This covers all three Microsoft Clouds; Azure, Microsoft 365 and Dynamics 365.
As your CSP partner, we'll ensure that you get the most out of these platforms – and only pay for what you use.
We provide expert support and advice for the following
Enterprise Agreement
Ideal for organisations with 500+ users or devices seeking a volume licencing program to buy cloud services and software licences under one agreement.
Microsoft Products and Services Agreement (MPSA)
The MPSA offers more flexible options, so you can have greater control over how you purchase and manage your assets.
Open and OVS
Microsoft Open licencing programs are a simple, cost-effective way for small and midsize organisations to acquire the latest Microsoft technology.
Software Asset Management
Software Asset Management (SAM) involves the end to end management of software applications. From purchase, optimisation and deployment, through to maintenance, utilisation and disposal, SAM automates many of the tasks required to ensure compliance and cost control.
SAM and Licence Compliance
We deliver SAM and licence compliance reviews, providing you with an Effective Licence Position (ELP). This allows you to make more informed licence procurement decisions based on your actual needs, whilst strengthening your position when negotiating license agreements
Software Roll Out
Whether you intend to roll out your new software to your entire base, to a small subset of users or in parallel with legacy code paths, we will guide you along the process by setting clear, measurable objectives. We will review your existing business workflows and processes to identify where change will occur and help define new workflows and processes following successful rollout.
Software Migration
When planning to move to a dynamic datacentre, software migration is a critical consideration but needn’t be a complex process. Whether freshly installing applications, hosting them internally, externally, moving to the cloud or virtualising them, we support your migration project by firstly understanding how you are currently managing and your application, users and data. From here we can plan, design, sanitise and implement your migration following the most appropriate methodology.
User Adoption and Training
We help you to get the most from your software investment by offering step by step guidance to ensure user adoption across your organisation. We also help to accelerate on-boarding times and increase software usage whilst aiming to alleviate user resistance at every stage.
We have partnered with certified training providers for multiple platforms to keep knowledge relevant across your support team:
Patch Management
We help protect your servers, workstations and remote computers from vulnerabilities and keep them up to date with the latest security patches and software updates by applying effective patch management solutions.
Audit Support
We conduct licence audits from all major vendors so that we can easily identify missing data and avoid negative assumptions from the auditors.
