Open Value
Open Value
Microsoft Open Value is a volume discount agreement for organisations with between two and more than five hundred desktop PCs. It is perpetual: the licences are bought outright with Software Insurance built in as standard and payments are spread over 3 years.
Open Value customers receive a volume discount. The level of discount depends on the volume bought at the start of the agreement. This discount then applies to additional licences bought during the following three years. The minimum initial order is five licences.
Do I qualify for Open Value?
To start an Open Value agreement, you can choose a minimum of five licences of any mix of products. The cost of your product licences are then split equally over three years. You pay a fixed price dependant upon the number of licences.
At the end of three years, you can choose:
- To renew for a further three years, and continue qualifying for upgrades to your software for the extended period
- Not to renew, in which case your licence allows you to carry on using the version that was current under your original Open Value agreement.
