Is it possible to purchase and maintain both Microsoft Action Pack and Partner Success Core Benefit
GPhbt How did you go with this? did get a chance to see what came up with the invoicing?
Are you still getting the full value of the Action Pack (including the $100 per month Azure) as well as the Success Core Benefits?
I'm kinda in the same boat, but haven't hit the buy button
My reading of this Link https://partner.microsoft.com/en-US/blog/article/grow-your-partnership-with-new-partner-benefits-packages#:~:text=Benefits%20packages%20that%20meet%20you%20where%20you%20are&text=Partners%20who%20want%20to%20kickstart,set%20of%20tools%20and%20support.
"You don't have to start with Launch Benefits; choose the package that aligns with your current needs and expand your benefits as you continue to grow with Microsoft. Our flexible approach allows you to purchase more than one package—you can have up to one of each—ensuring that you have access to the benefits you need to strengthen your cloud and AI practice. "
Is that you can have all three, and nothing seems to say that the lose access to the Action Pack.
Hi, I checked and in my opinion, the benefits of the Action Pack are being lost. Let me explain, I tried to track the expenses of these weeks (if you buy the success core Pack or another of this category you can no longer use the Azure cost control module but you have to use a special portal for partners which is very, very poor and unclear) and basically all the costs have been absorbed by the bulk credit present in the success core Pack, so the monthly $100 from the Action Pack have been lost. I assume they will be reactivated after the $2400 from the other package is exhausted, but during these months and until the end of the bulk credit of the new package, in my opinion, the $100 from the Action Pack are lost. I really don't know what to say or do, do you think it is possible to open a ticket somewhere?
If you want to pursue this path, perhaps the only way is to use two subscriptions each with its own pack, but I don't know how feasible this is.
Anyway, Microsoft certainly tells you that you can buy as many packs as you want, but if the benefits do not add up but overlap, what's the point?
They are not only very unclear but also quite unfair..
