Microsoft licensing, simplified
Buy Microsoft licences through a partner — not just a portal
Foresight is a Microsoft Cloud Solution Provider (CSP). That means we can sell, manage and support your Microsoft 365, Copilot and security licences directly — on one predictable monthly bill, with local UK expertise behind it. You get help choosing the right mix, right-sizing seats so you don’t pay for shelfware, and a partner who also deploys and secures the environment rather than just handing you a licence key.
Because we’re famous for fixed monthly fees, your licensing sits alongside your support and cyber security in one transparent cost — no surprise renewals, no rigid multi-year lock-ins you didn’t ask for.
The Microsoft licensing we manage
Microsoft 365 (Business Basic, Standard and Premium, plus Enterprise E3 and E5), Microsoft 365 Copilot, Microsoft Security Copilot, Microsoft Purview, Microsoft Entra ID, Microsoft Defender and Azure. If it’s in the Microsoft cloud, we can licence and look after it.
