Are these the same licences I'd buy from Microsoft?

Identical. Fortesia is a Microsoft Cloud Solution Provider, so the subscriptions sit in your own tenant under Microsoft's terms. The difference is who bills you, what you pay, and who picks up the phone.

How can you be cheaper than Microsoft directly?

As a Tier 1 CSP, Microsoft provides us wholesale pricing which we pass directly on to you. We also eliminate license waste, unused seats, and over-provisioned tiers during our initial audit.

Do I have to move everything at once?

No. You can start with a single product, such as Microsoft 365 or Azure, and migrate other workloads or renewals as your existing contracts expire.

What happens to my current renewal date?

We align the transfer precisely with your current renewal or true-up window so there is zero double-billing and no cancellation penalties.

Who actually answers when something breaks?

A named senior engineer assigned to your account with a direct phone line and a 15-minute SLA on P1 incidents. No generic queues, no scripts.

What does it cost to switch, and can I leave?

Switching is completely free with zero downtime or data migration needed. If you ever decide to leave, you can exit at any renewal term with zero lock-in penalties.

Direct Tier 1 Microsoft Solutions Partner

Wholesale Margin Pass-Through • 15-Min Response SLA • 100% Tax Compliant

Why Buy Through Fortesia Instead of Direct?

Buying directly from Microsoft means paying 100% full retail list price, waiting in anonymous 24-hour ticket queues, and navigating inflexible multi-year lock-ins. Fortesia combines wholesale volume discounts with named senior engineers and complete month-to-month agility.
