Microsoft Licensing with Software Assurance

[Daveyd123]

We currently have an Enterprise Agreement with Software Assurance (XP Pro, Office Pro, Server Ent) However, on the MS Licensing site, I only have Vista Business and Office 2007 Pro Plus available for me to download.

Any idea why I don't have access to Vista Enterprise and Office 2007 Enterprise?

Office 2003 Pro ==> Office 2007 Enterprise you need an upgrade £££££

Like wise for Vista, I don't think Enterprise and Ultimate are included for Win XP Pro.

What you shocked that we've got EA's and there's additional costs?

Sorry to be barer of bad news.

Shocked that MS is trying to extract more money out of SA clients....hardly

According to this Vista Enterprise should be available for free to SA users

According to a document I was sent through by by supplyer
OfficeSTd2k3 becomes OfficeStd2k7
OfficePro2k3 Becomes OfficeProPlus

Both requiring a "Step-Up" to OfficeEntEd2k7.

Although this doc is about 3 months old.

I agree, with you on this one and what the doc's say.

What? Confusion over MS licensing, never I mmust be reading it wrong!
