The Microsoft Cloud Solution Provider (CSP) program is a program that allows Microsoft partners to sell and manage Microsoft cloud solutions, including Software as a Service (SaaS) products such as Microsoft 365 and Dynamics 365. The CSP program provides partners with the ability to manage customer billing, support, and provisioning of Microsoft cloud services, allowing them to offer a complete solution to their customers.
In the CSP program, Microsoft partners act as a reseller or distributor of Microsoft cloud solutions. They purchase Microsoft cloud services through the program and resell them to their customers, providing support and management services for those solutions. This allows partners to provide a complete solution to their customers, with the ability to customize and bundle services to meet the specific needs of their customers.
The CSP program is designed to support SaaS products and other cloud solutions, making it an important program for SaaS providers and resellers. By participating in the program, SaaS providers can leverage the expertise and resources of Microsoft partners to extend the reach of their products and services, while also providing their customers with a complete solution that includes support, billing, and management.
The CSP program also provides benefits for Microsoft partners, including the ability to build a recurring revenue stream by reselling Microsoft cloud solutions, as well as the opportunity to differentiate themselves in the market by offering a complete solution to their customers.
