Microsoft Solutions Partner designation in Azure - concerns
LicensingConcierge1 thank you for your response. Could you confirm which session you are referring to where the calculations will be discussed? There seems to be only 1 'office hours' session this year which relates to co-op marketing funds and the others don't appear to list that the calculations will be discussed?
Following on from my previous note about the 'Microsoft Partner Inspire event' it was confirmed that the legacy benefits can be renewed for another year which for us takes some of the pressure off achieving a designation. My concerns around the calculations still stands as there is no consideration for existing clients that continue to purchase Microsoft services. Surely rewarding partners who help clients continue to utilise Microsoft services should be factored in. I also understand that growth is a key measure however comparing to previous years doesn't seem fair considering there are many factors outside of partners control. Isn't any new clients and growth a good thing for Microsoft and so should be rewarded?
Hi DanMo1
The FY24 incentive guide will be published the first week of September in preparation for the Oct 1st launch. Details on calculation and how net new seats are derived should be included here.
As mentioned, there will also be Business Applications office hours which will walk through calculations in more detail using the link that I previously provided.
If your question(s) are not answered during the office hours, please raise your hand or put your question in the chat during the office hours.
