your
question.
Software Assurance Benefits
Software Assurance (SA) is a maintenance offer that helps your organization
get the
most from Microsoft software through a broad range of benefits. From
deployment
planning and staff training to product support and software upgrades, SA
benefits
help increase productivity, accelerate organizational performance, and
realize a
return on software investment faster. SA benefits come with most of the
volume
license software available for donation through Microsoft Citizenship &
Public
Affairs and our partners. Get Genuine operating systems do not include SA
benefits.
Your software licenses include two years of software assurance benefits.
Software
Assurance benefits are not the same as product licenses. Product licenses
do not
expire and are valid for as long as you own the product. SA benefits expire
after
two years, though they can be renewed for a fee. Benefits must be renewed
before the
SA expiration date; there is no grace period. SA benefits add value to your
products
but are not part of them.
SA benefits include free software upgrades, Office Multi-Language Packs,
Office
suites for use at home, E-Learning courses, and cold backups, access to
TechNet
services, availability to install Windows 7 Enterprise, License Mobility,
Windows
Virtual Desktop access, Roaming Use Rights, and access to Windows Thin PC.
Automatic Upgrades with Software Assurance
If a product you receive through this donation is upgraded within the next
two years
and is on the list of products covered by Software Assurance, the donated
licenses
will automatically convert to the newest version of the software.
