From news to events, here’s what Pax8 has going on in December.
Marketplace Updates – North America and EMEA
NCE Offerings and Marketplace Updates
Microsoft is changing the way their incentives are tiered. If you don’t switch over to Microsoft’s New Commerce Experience (NCE) from legacy CSP by Jan. 1, 2023, your organization stands to lose all of your incentives and rebates.
If you’re ready to make the switch from legacy CSP to NCE, you can easily make the move in the Pax8 Marketplace.
Still not quite sure about switching to NCE? That’s what we’re here for. We have Microsoft experts standing by to answer your questions and help you get the most out of your Microsoft partnership.
Don’t get stuck: Switch to NCE.
