Thnks for this info.

Glad it was useful!

Thanks for this, however, Microsoft has offered (in addition to the perpetual model) subscriptions versions of both Windows Server Standard and Datacenter with Azure Hybrid benefit + Software Assurance Equivalency for the last 2 years via the CSP channel. We've been selling loads of it. The licensing model allows for on premises use as well as Azure plus many other flexible options. So essentially Exchange is the one that's late to the game. 😉

Thanks for the info. I didn’t know CSPs were selling subscription licenses that covered on-premises use.

Thank you for using the word "Premises." I cringe when I hear others say "on-premise." Yes, I'm a pedant.

[@ThisWeekinIT]

Lol we try our best 😊

[@synthwave7]

on-premise is the correct word that everynboy uses - nobody I ever heard in my 35 year IT career used "premises."

Subscription models only enrich greedy. Adobe, office365...pure overpriced greed. I am disgusted by exchange being a greed based model ...we all know ms will bilk small businesses even more. I could rant for hours on this.
