Changes to Microsoft Pricing Policy for EU/EFTA region This July 2012 Microsoft will unify its Volume Licensing pricing policy across the European Union/European Free Trade Association region.
Some countries will see changes to non-Euro pricing as Microsoft establishes greater price consistency across the EU/EFTA region.
Due to sustained currency divergence between countries that use the Euro and those that do not, the British Pound, Swiss Franc and Euro, Microsoft is establishing price alignment for volume licensing customers in the region.
Whereas most EU/EFTA countries currencies are already closely aligned to the Euro, we anticipate expected Price Changes as follows:
*Increase in prices in the UK
*Decrease in prices in Switzerland
Microsoft’s plan is to continue to offer volume licensing in local and Euro denominations, to periodically assess the impact of their pricing policies & make changes if necessary to maintain price consistency across the EU/EFTA Region. This way they can continue to provide clear & equitable pricing.
Please contact your HP SLMS Account Manager to discuss how this change may impact you.

Enterprise Cloud Services — Messaging Private Cloud Collaboration brings the necessary data sovereignty, isolation, and security boundary between systems that serve multiple clients, along with strict compliance and privacy policies. Another great advantage to using a private cloud is that private clouds are optimized for business application. They give you more flexibility to customize your applications. HP private cloud brings this support by leveraging templates & pre-built toolsets.
But the differentiation is not all about the features you bring with your services.
Deciding to work with a cloud service provider to manage your collaboration applications as a hosted offering is one thing, choosing the right service provider is another. Most service providers take on the responsibility to support the platform that’s running the client’s applications and are accountable for the operation and performance of the service. Yet, the best service providers actually become a valued partner of the client’s organization and work on an overall solution that meets the client’s goals and they are equally as committed as the client to the success of the program.
HP has proven over 40+ years history that it is a trusted partner and has been an ally for our clients as they pursue leadership in their selected business and markets.
