Why become a Microsoft Indirect Reseller?

As a Microsoft Indirect Reseller, you can concentrate on selling licenses without having to meet the stringent requirements imposed on Direct Partners.

Unlike Direct Partners, Indirect Resellers DO NOT need to:

  • Maintain an Annual Support Agreement Costing €13,500
  • Offer at Least One Managed Service or Customer App
  • Manage Infrastructure Including Automated Billing and Customer Support

FAQs

Is it free to join Cloud Factory?

Yes. There is no cost to become a partner, nor is there any charge to remain a partner and use our services and platform. You only pay for the Microsoft licenses you sell to your customers.

How do I switch?

The process is actually quite simple, and our onboarding team helps with most of it. For example, we assist in transferring your licenses from another distributor.

Is there any downtime during the switch?

All Microsoft licenses seamlessly transfer to us from your current distributor without any downtime. Therefore, your customers will not notice any disruption during the switch.

What can I transfer?

You can transfer all Microsoft cloud solutions, such as Office 365, Dynamics, Power BI, and Azure. We ensure your licenses expire with your current distributor and remove auto-renew, so you avoid double payment.

How do I bill my customers?

We send you CSV and XML files with all the necessary details to correctly bill your customers. These files are compatible with most ERP systems, including e-conomic and D365 Business Central.

How fast is the support?

We always answer the phone—and quickly. The average wait time for our support is only 13 seconds.

Snowballing cloudplexity? Maze-like support? Mysterious pricing?
