Maximize cloud investments with the Microsoft commercial marketplace
summary
Claims concrete ROI: marketplace counts Azure benefit eligible purchases 100% toward an Azure consumption commitment, Forrester finds it can eliminate proof‑of‑concept fees, and customers show a 40% annualized increase in commitments and a 60% annualized growth in marketplace‑buyable solutions. Features shown: a demo of the private Azure Marketplace (admin approves requests, filter for approved plans, per‑subscription collections) and support for multiparty private offers (US first, Canada/UK next). Case example: Mural uses MongoDB purchases to fill commitment and unlock infrastructure discounts.
