About

This event has now taken place.

 

Join ITAM Review Analysts and a selection of vendors for a 3 hour virtual conference on Microsoft License Management on Wednesday 11th December at 2pm GMT.

Microsoft Licensing continues to be a hot topic for our readers. Microsoft have made several changes to products and programmes throughout 2019 and these, coupled with long-standing licensing complexity, means staying updated -and compliant – rank among the biggest challenges ITAM professionals face.

The purpose of this ITAM Review Online Summit is to provide our readers with the knowledge to better manage their Microsoft estates and agreements.

Vendors will present their solutions including tools and services, and the event will wrap up with an interactive Q&A session between analysts, vendors, and attendees.
