Microsoft Enterprise Agreement (EA) versus Microsoft Products Agreement (MPSA)
As of July 1, 2016, the Microsoft Enterprise Agreement has doubled its license user/device minimum from a 250-seat minimum to 500 users or devices. Organizations that fall into the 250 to 499-seat category, must take action before the deadline. In fact, these organizations should start planning now and make a definitive decision no later than mid-April.
