Azure Consumption / Microsoft CSP Maximum Earning
Hi Everyone, We're working through our Microsoft focused sales plan, and I have a couple of questions around the Maximum earning potential for each of these incentive programmes. CSP NCE Maximum incentive earning opportunity = $93,750. Maximum earning opportunity per customer tenant ID, per product group, per lever, per partner Does this mean that per any given customer transacting with us as an indirect reseller, can earn upto $93,750 or is this a per partner limit where our entire business can only earn upto $93,750? Azure Consumption Maximum incentive earning opportunity = $80k USD Maximum Earning Opportunities at per engagement term, per partner, per subscription level Same question as above, is this a limit for our entire company or per any given subscription for any given customer? Thanks for your help!
Commit Units are included in the Azure reservation and Savings plan Lever of Azure CSP motion?
When we sell MDC or Sentinel in PAYG we can have these incentives: up to 80k usd 4% on ACR for CSP motion up to 25k usd 3% of ACR for MDC and Sentinel for workload accelerator When we sell Pre Purchased Plans/Commit Units, are they falling in the Azure reservation and saving plans lever with 10% rebate? The guide says "(Includes PTUs4 , ACR from Reserved Instance, and Azure Savings Plan consumption)" only. Thank youThere are no benefits to being a MS Partner
The absolute absurdity of being a Microsoft Partner is beyond insanity. Some of us have built businesses around the Microsoft Ecosystem (STUPIDLY I MUST ADD). And for what? For Microsoft to block us from our accounts and give zero explanation of the issue? As I am sure others have seen since there are posts everywhere of other people having the same issues, its mind blowing that Microsoft does nothing to assist its partners who are the ones generating them the revenue. Supporting their crappy products over and over and over again being the ones on the front lines getting beat up by their customers because of constant outages, constant issues. Back in September my account was blocked. Not one bit of an explanation. Not one email telling me why. The only thing I got was a notice saying my visual studio enterprise license was removed. Upon checking I couldn't find anything. I open a support ticket. And so far, the only thing I have been told is my account has been blocked. Yet not one person can apparently tell me why? Not one person can tell me what I need to do to fix it? Not one person can even get on the phone to assist on this. Before I lost numerous customers because of this. I was selling 30k a month in licenses. And now because my account was blocked, I have lost access to a crap ton of my development, I have lost access to any and all of the benefits. I have lost access to basically everything even though when you look at my partner center account. Every single thing still shows active / approved. Etc. My suggestion, if you are considering becoming a Microsoft Partner. DONT. SIMPLE AS THAT. The fact they can block you from doing business, block access to products and services you have paid for. And give you zero ability to fix it so you lose numerous customers and don't even tell you what happened or what needs to be done to rectify the issue. Partnering with Microsoft is the single biggest mistake I have made as a business owner. The second biggest would be that I built my development side of the business fully integrated into the MS ecosystem. Which made it so they cost me countless amounts of money and ability to even do business with my customers.Cpor Microsoft Information protection
Hi, I have notices an issue recently that all of our cpor claims for Microsoft Informaton Protection shows as 0 paid avialiable units and 0 Monthly Active Users. Even though the customers have licenses that includes MIP and have MIP deployed. Have any one else experianced this problem and how have did you solved it? So far Microsoft haven't been that helpful. For us it's really important with these cpor claims in regards to our partnerships with Microsoft. Br, Henrik
Non-Incentivized Recognition - CPOR Claims
Hello, I hope this is the right discussion group for this. Could someone please tell me if the non-incentivized recognitions for CPOR Claims (both revenue association and usage association) means the recognition is reflected in the scoring for Solutions Partner Designation? If not, in what way is the association recognized? Thank you in advance.ECIF Funding Milestone Date Changes
Hi there - We're working on an ECIF funded project and due to approval date being pushed back we were unable to start the project until a few days before the first milestone completion date. Our team was hoping to extend the date of the first milestone but we received feedback that we may lose the funding if the date is extended. Looking at the ECIF process documentation, it seems like if all milestones listed are completed in the same quarter then the changes are documented and approved by Microsoft, then an amendment isn't required. All approved milestone completion dates are in Q3 and if the milestone dates are extended the project will be still be completed in Q3. How do milestone extensions on approved ECIF scopes work within the same quarter (and in general) and will we lose funding if we request an extension?
