Microsoft Adds New Partner Benefits Packages, Program Updates

Microsoft announced new partner benefits packages – equipped with in-demand product, support and advisory benefits – that are designed to drive partner success. These benefits packages include:

  • Partner Launch Benefits – Empower partners to discover, use and test Microsoft products.
  • Partner Success Core Benefits – Extend more robust tools and support.
  • Partner Success Expanded Benefits – Lend the most comprehensive range of product benefits and support.

The packages are purpose-built to meet partner needs at different stages of growth, and are designed to help take businesses to the next level. They also complement Solutions Partner and ISV Success core and expanded benefits, which are already available to partners.

Microsoft’s partner benefits packages can be purchased individually and as a complement to existing benefits such as ISV Success. Beyond these packages, partners are encouraged to differentiate their organizations with a solution area “Solutions Partner” designation or specialization. In addition to helping stand out to customers in the market, these offerings unlock more Microsoft Azure credits, seats and technical support.

Visit Microsoft’s Compare Offers page to view the benefits available for each of the new partner benefits packages, as well as information on pricing. In addition to product, support and advisory benefits, each package also includes Microsoft Sales Copilot, for maximizing efficiency for sales teams and improving customer interactions, as well as Copilot (formerly Bing Chat or Bing Chat Enterprise), which boosts productivity through access to powerful AI models.

New packages are available in “major markets,” effective immediately. By the end of March 2024, these partner benefits packages will be expanded to most other geographies.
