Microsoft License Statement Analysis PDF Print E-mail
An easy method of understanding your Microsoft volume licensing position
Microsoft maintains an extensive database of every volume licensing agreement (VLA) held by all its customers.  However this database often contains discrepancies - caused by acquisitions, de-mergers, rapid growth etc ñ and agreement holders can find that their compliance position is in jeopardy if they donít properly analyse their Microsoft licensing statements.
A Microsoft Licensing Statement (MLS), or consumption report as itís commonly termed, is simply a list of software purchases made by your organisation ñ it doesnít reflect the structure of your business or take into account any company changes that could have a material effect on your licensing position ñ and can be complex to analyse.
The Teksys MLSA service provides an accurate interpretation of the database which the MLS alone is unable to provide.

  • Detail all Microsoft Product Pools, Applications, Servers and Operating Systems.
