experiences with “MS incentives new experience”

Dear Microsoft, dear fellow partners,

 

Please find below first experiences with the new "incentives experience" where the annual incentives guide was replaced with a website. This fine product can be found at: https://incentiveguide.partner.microsoft.com/en-US/

  1. Site only shows a video, no matter which link you click. We want text, not video.

 

I want the CSP M365 incentives info, not that video overlay again. 

2. Site refers to a ‘product addendum’ but no such is found in the guide itself (it is in the MCI collection on OpsReadiness luckily - https://assetsprod.microsoft.com/mpn/en-us/microsoft-commerce-incentive-product-addendum.xlsx )

3. The MCI collection (https://partner.microsoft.com/en-US/asset/collection/microsoft-commerce-incentive-resources#/) links to various files/links. The link to the FY27 coop guide is broken ☹ (https://incentiveguide.partner.microsoft.com/en-US/fy27-co-op/how-to-use-the-co-op-guidebook) p- luckily the definitions of what cannot be found are present (at https://incentiveguide.partner.microsoft.com/en-US/additional-terms-and-definitions/glossary-cooperative-marketing-funds)

4. There are no rates mentioned in the website/download of the guide. For CSP you would need to view the MSFY27 documentation in collection mentioned earlier

 

we eagerly await an updated & improved version of this site!

  • Hi MartijnBreet, your feedback is valid because partners need searchable text, downloadable references, working links, and clear rates, not only video-based guidance. I would collect the broken links, missing document names, and screenshots, then submit them through Partner Center support or the incentives support path. For something replacing an annual guide, Microsoft should make the content easier to audit and reference internally.
