1- Access to new Versions, Hotfixes, Update Packs (Service Packs) and Legal Updates

One of the main benefits of the Maintenance Plan is access, free of charge, to new versions and periodic updates of the system. Microsoft invests heavily in research and development, so keeping your business in the latest version available means benefiting from new features and tools, based on advanced technology. Additionally, in recent years there have been several tax and regulatory changes, which imply adaptations to the IT systems. That’s why it’s critical to ensure access to updates as they become available to help your organization remain in legal compliance.

2- Protected Price List

Protect your investment from price fluctuations by ensuring you maintain license purchase values. By renewing it every year, you are ensuring that the license you have remains at the value for which it was purchased. In this way, since the amount for annual renewal corresponds to a percentage of the license amount, it also guarantees that the annual renewal amount corresponds to what had been budgeted.

3- License Updates

Do you have new employees in the company who need to access the system? To license users it is mandatory to have an active maintenance plan. The same happens if you need to purchase new features or objects. In summary, any licensing change requires the existence of an active maintenance plan.
