Microsoft contracts are built to maximize spend, lock-in customers, and drive aggressive renewal uplifts.
Introduction
Microsoft licensing is everywhere. But it’s not simple.
Enterprise Agreements (EA), Microsoft 365 (M365), Azure consumption, true-ups, cloud commitments — all create cost risks for customers.
At Redress Compliance, we help customers navigate Microsoft licensing complexity — and negotiate contracts on their terms.
We work only for you — never for Microsoft.
