Buyer questions
Frequently Asked Questions

- Procurement-led purchases that need internal approval before payment
- Teams comparing editions, deployment scope, or licensing obligations
- Higher-value Microsoft server and enterprise products that should not go through self-serve checkout

- 2. We review edition fit, territory eligibility, and procurement requirements before pricing

What to prepare
- Primary product configuration or edition you are evaluating
- Estimated quantity or deployment size for the first purchase
- Target timeline, approval path, and any territory or compliance constraints
Why commercial review comes before pricing
Direct checkout is not offered for commercial licensing because edition fit, procurement scope, and territory eligibility often need review before a final quote is issued.
Typical response window
First response is typically within 1 business day. Complex estates or multi-team approvals may need a follow-up before the final quote is issued.
