The SHI Microsoft EA to CSP Licensing Guide compares the Enterprise Agreement (EA) and Cloud Solution Provider (CSP) models, helping organizations decide which best fits their needs. It highlights CSP’s flexibility, monthly billing, and improved cash flow versus EA’s long-term, fixed-cost structure. SHI outlines a six-step migration process covering assessment, planning, and optimization, supported by expert guidance and its SHI One management platform. CSP enables scalable licensing for Azure, Microsoft 365, Dynamics 365, and Copilot, with ongoing optimization and faster innovation. The guide concludes that CSP better aligns with agile, cloud-first strategies for modern businesses.
