What is Microsoft Open License?

Microsoft Volume Licensing programs serve organizations that acquire five or more licenses, but do not need multiple copies of the media and the documentation, and do not want to keep track of numerous individual license agreements. It offers the option to purchase Licenses, Upgrades (Windows Desktop O/S), License with Software Assurance, and Software Assurance (however, I believe you should utilize Open Value for your Software Assurance purchases, not Open License). Offers perpetual licenses and is a two year program. Available through any Microsoft reseller. See more online.

More Open Volume Details

The Open Volume program is designed for organizations that need as few as five, and up to thousands, of licenses. It is especially useful for organizations that need multiple copies of particular titles. It is a cost saving yet access to Software Assurance.

Microsoft products are grouped in product pools and assigned a point value. The number of points you purchase in your initial order for a particular product pool determines your Open Volume License level and price discount. Your Open Volume authorization number is valid for two years.   Purchase licenses and optional Software Assurance as needed over your two-year term. Note that Software Assurance expires when your license authorization number expires, regardless of the point during the term in which it was purchased.

What is Software Assurance ?
