What is CSP

One modern channel for all your Microsoft cloud

CSP (Cloud Solution Provider) is Microsoft's modern licensing model — the New Commerce Experience (NCE). Instead of a rigid, multi-year Enterprise Agreement, you license Microsoft 365, Azure, Dynamics 365 and more through an authorised partner like Zation.

You get one agreement (Microsoft Customer Agreement), one partner and one invoice — with the freedom to add, change or scale subscriptions whenever your business changes.

One renewal date, scheduled orders

Your Microsoft licences are transacted through CSP and co-termed to one renewal date — buy, change or schedule orders, all handled professionally.

Add something new mid-term — like Copilot — and we provision it in minutes and co-term it directly to your common date. A professional transaction, no scattered renewals.

Azure, on a pay-as-you-go plan

Your Azure consumption runs on the Azure plan through CSP — pay only for what you use, billed monthly in your currency, with no upfront commitment required.

As your CSP, we order and manage Reserved Instances, Savings Plans and Azure Hybrid Benefit for you — the commitments that bring your rate down. Continuous optimisation runs through FinOps, as a separate service.

Why license through Zation

A partner that does more than resell — flexible, transparent and optimised from day one.

Access to the Zation Platform

Every CSP customer gets the Zation Platform — audit-ready visibility across M365, Azure and GreenOps, included.

Flexible through co‑terming

We standardise on annual terms for the best price and co-term every subscription to one aligned end date — add or change seats anytime, without fragmenting your renewals.

No minimum volume

No minimum seat count and no big upfront commitment — start at a single licence and grow from there.

Everything from one partner

Licensing, FinOps, optimization and first-level support — one agreement, one invoice, one team.

CSP and FinOps — all from one partner

Most providers just move licences. With Zation, your CSP licensing comes combined with FinOps, optimization and our platform — one partner for the whole lifecycle, so your spend is right from the start and stays right.

Questions, answered

What exactly is CSP?+
CSP (Cloud Solution Provider) is Microsoft's modern licensing channel, built on the New Commerce Experience (NCE). Instead of buying directly or through a classic Enterprise Agreement, you license Microsoft 365, Azure and Dynamics through an authorised partner like Zation — on one Microsoft Customer Agreement.
Can we move to CSP from an EA or a direct contract?+
Yes. We plan the transition around your renewal date so there's no coverage gap and no double-paying — and implement the optimization in the same move.
Annual or 3-year — and what about co-terming?+
We standardise on annual terms for the best price and co-term them to one aligned end date, so your whole estate renews together. Stable core SKUs can go 3-year for an even better rate. Monthly stays reserved for genuinely short-term needs.
What happens at renewal?+
NCE subscriptions auto-renew, and missing the cancellation window can lock you in — and cost more. Zation manages every renewal and cancellation window for you, so there are no surprise auto-renewals.
Who provides support?+
Zation is your first-level support — a dedicated team that already knows your environment. Microsoft sits behind us for escalations, so you always have one place to go.
In which currencies can you bill?+
We operate across Europe and bill in CHF, EUR or your local currency — your whole Microsoft estate on one consolidated invoice, in the currency that fits your business.
