This model has become very popular and successful with Microsoft product resellers.

Microsoft’s Cloud Solution Provider (CSP) program allows you as a reseller to package and resell Microsoft cloud solutions while managing the end-to-end relationship with your customers.

Why become a Microsoft Cloud Solution Provider (CSP)?

Become the single point of contact for your customers, whether it’s for advice, technical support or the purchase of licenses and cloud computing solutions.

  • Sell more than hardware and perpetual software licenses and position yourself as a trusted technology partner for your customers.
  • Integrate, price and sell on a monthly subscription basis Microsoft Cloud solutions (Azure, Microsoft 365, Office 365, Dynamics 365 and more) by combining them with your own service and product offerings.
  • Increase your margins and monthly recurring revenue.
  • Simplify billing for your customers: They get a single invoice for support, services and licenses.

Frequently Asked Questions

We’re an Advisor partner. What is the connection between the CSP program and the Advisor program?

The Advisor program has been retired by Microsoft. Now’s the time to join the CSP program and earn more revenue.

If we join the CSP program, can existing EA, Open or Advisor customers purchase subscriptions from us?

Yes. Customers who have purchased subscriptions with other license models can upgrade to new CSP subscriptions or have the two existing types side by side.

How can I sell to a customer who already has a CSP partner?

The CSP program allows customers to have relationships with more than one CSP reseller.

If we become an indirect reseller, will Microsoft recognize our sales with respect to skills and discounts?

Yes. Your partner number (MPN ID) is simply attached to each subscription you sell.

Can I transfer an existing CSP agreement from my current distributor to ITCloud.ca?

Yes, we have defined processes to facilitate the transition of the contract. Please contact us for more details.

I'm a Direct CSP dealer. Can I switch to Indirect and what are the benefits?

Yes, you can. Providing Microsoft cloud services is easy when you partner with ITCoud.ca and you always get great margins. You’ll no longer have to:

  • Provide at least one managed service, IP service or customer solution application.
  • Activate the billing and provisioning infrastructure.
  • Buy Microsoft Advanced support which costs $15,000 per year.
