Last month at the Inspire event, Microsoft announced a major enhancement to AppSource's visuals.
You can now purchase and manage licenses of licensed visuals through Microsoft AppSource!
So how does it work?
- Now, when you look at licensed visuals in AppSource, you can see all the available licensing plans for each visual. Of course, you can still download the visual for free and try the free functionality provided. Some paid plans also offer 1 free month. Licensed visuals are visuals marked with price tag “Starts at Free” and has the “Plans + Pricing” tab.
- Choose the best plan for you based on your business needs. Complete the transaction with supported payment methods. You can select automatic renewal, so you don’t have to worry about license expiration. You can also purchase licenses for other users.
- Assign licenses to yourself or other users in Microsoft 365 admin center.
You will have full visibility on the status of the licenses you purchased. Only licensed users are entitled to use the paid functionality. You no longer need to work with multiple 3rd party providers to complete transactions or manage licenses. Everything is done within Microsoft platforms!
