Starmind: Now on Microsoft Azure Marketplace and Appsource

Discover a smarter way to empower your organisation with Starmind, now readily available on both the Microsoft Azure Marketplace and Microsoft AppSource. Integrating Starmind into your existing Microsoft ecosystem offers a streamlined path to enhanced knowledge sharing and problem-solving.

Imagine simplifying your software procurement. With Starmind listed on these trusted marketplaces, you can purchase directly through Microsoft, the vendor you already know and trust. This eliminates the often complex and time-consuming process of adding new vendors, significantly reducing vendor approvals and unnecessary paperwork. Your procurement teams can bypass the intricacies of onboarding a new supplier, as Starmind can be acquired as part of your existing Microsoft contract. Furthermore, the adoption of the Standard Microsoft legal contract streamlines the process for your legal department.

Experience reduced friction with compliance and IT approvals. Many organisations have already pre-approved Microsoft as a vendor, making Starmind easier to procure without the need for additional risk assessments. This can lead to smoother and faster large-scale rollouts of Starmind across your enterprise. 

The presence of Starmind on the Azure Marketplace and AppSource gives it a "Microsoft Stamp of Approval", giving you peace of mind with the software. You are investing in a solution that Microsoft itself co-sells and supports, offering you that added assurance.

Seamless Integration and Management within Your Microsoft Environment

Adopting Starmind through Microsoft’s marketplaces ensures convenient procurement and management. Instead of dealing with multiple vendors and platforms, you can purchase and manage Starmind in the same way you handle other Microsoft solutions. This provides a single, familiar dashboard for subscriptions, billing, and administrative controls, saving valuable time and effort for both your IT and business stakeholders.

Whether your IT teams prefer the Azure Portal or your business users are more familiar with the Microsoft 365 admin centre, you have the flexibility to choose the marketplace that best aligns with your organisation’s operational preferences. Rest assured that from a product perspective, there is no real difference between the Starmind solution offered on either marketplace. The key distinction lies in the management interface and the primary target audience of each store.

What is a Microsoft Azure Consumption Commitment (MACC) agreement?

A Microsoft Azure Consumption Commitment (MACC) is an agreement between a customer and Microsoft that outlines a committed level of spending on Azure services over a specific period. Many enterprises enter into these agreements to benefit from volume discounts and strategic cloud adoption planning.

Leverage Your Existing Azure Investment with MACC

Are you already committed to Microsoft Azure through a MACC agreement? If so, acquiring Starmind through the Azure Marketplace and Microsoft AppSource can offer a significant financial advantage. Purchases made through these marketplaces can count towards your existing Azure spending commitment. This means you can utilise your current Microsoft budget to implement Starmind, potentially avoiding the need to allocate entirely new funds. This benefit makes Starmind an Azure benefit-eligible offer.

The Azure Marketplace is the ideal destination for solutions built for the Azure environment, catering to IT professionals and developers. Subscriptions and billing are conveniently managed within the Azure Portal, and importantly, these purchases can contribute to your Azure consumption commitments (MACC).

Similarly, Microsoft AppSource focuses on business solutions, including Software as a Service (SaaS) applications. If your organisation primarily manages its cloud services through the Microsoft 365 admin centre, AppSource provides a familiar environment for acquiring and managing Starmind. Purchases through AppSource also typically qualify for MACC, allowing you to further leverage your existing Microsoft investment.
