Finally, licensing made easy.
Acquiring the Small Business Desktop Advantage is as simple as counting the number of computers in your company. Because this is a company-wide offering, you simply count how many computers there are in your company, order one Small Business Desktop Advantage license for each computer and you are done. It is that simple! If the number of computers in your company increases, simply add one Small Business Desktop Advantage license for each additional computer and the new computers would also receive all of the included benefits.

One license per computer in your company. No more trying to figure out which computers have which version of Office or Windows anymore or which ones need upgrades or not.
One Agreement number that all of your Microsoft software purchases can be added to instead of having to keep track of several different license agreements.

Less than Fries!
The Small Business Desktop Advantage offers substantial savings to small businesses! To put it in perspective, it is equivalent to receiving all of the items listed in the overview for about 84¢ a day (less than an order of fries!) per computer with the spread payments benefit! And even though you can spread your payments out over three years as a benefit, you own the software licenses. This is not a rental or software subscription. This means they are yours to use for as long as you want, even beyond the three-year payment period. After the initial three-year period, you will have the option to renew your Software Assurance benefits for an additional three years if you wish.

The Microsoft Small Business Desktop Advantage also provides you the flexibility to either spread your payments out over three years (no interest or finance charges), or pay for the entire amount up front if that fits better into your financial model.

Part #B6K-00052 is the Small Business Desktop Advantage with the three year spread payments.
Part #B6K-00050 is the Small Business Desktop Advantage paid up front or when using Microsoft Financing.

Both options offer the same benefits and rights and both cost the same. It is simply a matter of which works best for you and your company.
