Microsoft knows its volume-licensing is going to need an overhaul if and when its customers and partners really start going gung-ho for for the cloud.
In the company’s fiscal 2011 (which runs from July 1, 2010, to June 30, 2011), Microsoft will be doing the ground work for an overhaul of its volume-licensing infrastructure and policies. But don’t expect any actual new programs during that period, according to Joe Matz, the Corporate Vice President of Worldwide Licensing and Pricing.
Matz spoke at a session at Microsoft’s Worldwide Partner Conference on July 13 about the company’s Large Account Reseller (LAR) program.
