Does this update really affect my own organization?
Yes, if any of the following are true:
You have a Microsoft Enterprise Agreement – regardless of when it expires.
You are budgeting for Microsoft costs in 2026–2027 – the pricing model has changed fundamentally.
You are planning Azure investments – licensing and cloud costs are linked.
You want control over IT costs – the right strategy provides both flexibility and efficiency
You have fewer than 2,400 users – you cannot renew your EA
You are not satisfied with your current Cloud Solution Provider

EA is being phased out, CSP/MCA-E is coming in – what do I need to know?
Starting in January 2025, Microsoft has begun notifying many customers about the EA update. In November 2025, traditional volume discounts may be updated. You can wait until your EA expires and manage it reactively. Or you can plan strategically now, optimize as you transition, and potentially reduce your overall Microsoft costs by 20-30%. Dedicate 60 minutes of your time. Free of charge. This could save your organization millions.
In this webinar, experienced Nordic partners NetNordic and Crayon will explore what this transition means, how it will affect organizations, and what steps you can take to prepare strategically – drawing on insights from hundreds of successful transitions.
You should not only manage your EA-to-CSP migration – but also focus on maximizing the long-term value of your entire Microsoft investment. Here, NetNordic can give you some core insights along the way, through our deep expertise in Cloud, Security/SOC, and Cost Optimization.
As a trusted Microsoft partner across the Nordics, NetNordic supports our customers through every stage of this journey – from planning, strategy, and implementation to continuous optimization.
Did you know that most organizations have 20–30% overprovisioning in their EA agreements? This means that you are already paying for resources you are not using. The CSP transition is your chance to fix that.
