Microsoft Software Assurance can be purchased for a period of 3 years in addition to many Microsoft products. The purchase of Software Assurance entitles you to a free update at any time as soon as a new version of your software is released. This guarantees that you are always up to date with the latest developments. You also get access to Microsoft Unified Support, the VLSC portal and other services to optimize license management. The purchase of Microsoft Software Assurance is therefore highly recommendable for most users.

By the way, did you know that you can permanently upgrade your OEM license to a volume license by purchasing Software Assurance? Software Assurance can also be booked on OEM licenses. This is possible within 90 days of purchase.
