ENT News | at | by Mike
Microsoft announced this week that it is shipping updated tools meant to aid users in evaluating a myriad of software licensing options.
The company said it has enhanced its suite of customer tools by adding more features to the Microsoft Product Licensing Advisor, the Forrester Software Assurance ROI Tool and broadening its Microsoft License Statement to new customers.
"With the release of several key new products, like Windows Vista and the 2007 Office System, we saw an opportunity to enrich our tools even further and make it simpler for people to research, budget and purchase these new products to quickly implement these solutions once their purchasing decisions have been made," said Joe Matz, vice president of Microsoft's worldwide licensing and pricing group, in a statement.
