Communitio's Teams SaaS app, NewCommunicator, has achieved Microsoft's top-tier 'Azure IP Co-sell' status. This allows customers to leverage their Microsoft Azure Consumption Commitment (MACC) for subscription fees, streamlining procurement.
Overview
株式会社コミュニティオ (Communitio) announced that its SaaS application for Microsoft Teams, "NewCommunicator," has obtained the top-tier status of "Azure IP Co-sell" on the Microsoft Marketplace.
Leveraging Azure IP Co-sell Eligibility
With this status, NewCommunicator becomes eligible for purchase using Microsoft Azure Consumption Commitment (MACC) credits. Companies that have direct contracts with Microsoft (EA or MCA) can now utilize their existing Azure budget towards SaaS subscription fees. This creates significant advantages for enterprise customers, including:
- Utilization of committed Azure budgets for Teams app purchases.
- Optimization of unused budget balances.
- Simplification of payment processes through consolidated Azure billing.
Rigorous Qualification Standards
To qualify for the Azure IP Co-sell program, applicants must meet several strict requirements, including publishing a transactable offer on the Marketplace, reaching a cumulative billing of $100,000 over the last 12 months, passing technical reference architecture verification, and clearing a thorough review by Microsoft. Communitio’s achievement highlights its capability to serve enterprise clients globally.
Important Notes for Adopters
- Customers must initiate the purchase through the Marketplace in the Azure Portal to utilize MACC benefits.
- For existing users transitioning to an MACC-based contract, price adjustments including marketplace service fees may apply.
- Multi-Party Private Offers (MPPO) are also supported for those purchasing via system integrators or resellers.
About NewCommunicator
NewCommunicator provides missing features for Microsoft Teams, such as company-wide mass messaging, segmented targeted delivery, read-receipt tracking, and link-click history analysis, making it an essential tool for Teams-centric digital transformation.
