Stop Overpaying for Licenses You Don't Fully Use
Microsoft licensing is one of the most powerful (and most misunderstood) investments a business makes in its technology stack. Without the right expertise, it's easy to end up paying for more than you need, running out of licenses at the worst time, or leaving powerful tools completely untouched. At Coast Techs, we take Microsoft licensing off your plate entirely. From provisioning the right licenses on day one to continuously managing and optimizing your subscription over time, we make sure your Microsoft investment is always working as hard as your team is.
Microsoft offers a broad portfolio of products and subscription plans - Microsoft 365, Azure, Dynamics 365, Intune, Defender, and more - each with multiple licensing tiers, add-ons, and configurations. Choosing the right combination, assigning licenses to the right users, and keeping everything compliant as your organization grows is a full-time job in itself.
Our Microsoft License Provisioning & Management service handles all of it:
License Assessment & Planning
Not sure which Microsoft plan is right for your business? We start with a thorough assessment of your team's needs, workflows, and existing tools. Then we recommend the optimal licensing structure - whether that's Microsoft 365 Business Basic, Business Premium, E3, E5, or a custom combination - so you're never under- or over-licensed.
License Provisioning
Once a plan is in place, we handle the full provisioning process: purchasing licenses through the appropriate Microsoft channel, configuring your tenant, and assigning licenses to users with the right permissions and settings from day one. New hire starting Monday? We've got them set up and ready to go.
User Lifecycle Management
As your team grows, changes, and evolves, your licenses need to keep pace. We manage the full user lifecycle - onboarding new employees with the right tools, adjusting licenses when roles change, and cleanly offboarding departing staff to recover licenses and protect your data.
License Optimization & Cost Management
Many organizations are paying for licenses that are assigned but never actually used. We perform regular audits of your Microsoft environment to identify unused or underutilized licenses, recommend downgrades or consolidations where appropriate, and ensure you're getting full value from every seat you're paying for.
Microsoft 365 Feature Adoption
A license is only as valuable as the tools it unlocks. We help your team actually use what they're paying for - from Teams and SharePoint to OneDrive, Defender, and Intune - so you get the productivity and security benefits Microsoft 365 was built to deliver.
Compliance & Licensing Agreement Management
Microsoft licensing audits can be disruptive and expensive if you're not prepared. We keep detailed records of your license assignments, usage, and agreements, so you're always audit-ready and compliant with Microsoft's terms.
We know Microsoft inside and out. Our team stays current on Microsoft's ever-evolving licensing landscape - new plans, pricing changes, feature updates - so you don't have to.
We're vendor-neutral in your corner. Our goal is to find the right fit for your business, not to upsell you on the most expensive plan. If a lower tier meets your needs, we'll tell you.
We make it simple. Licensing shouldn't require a degree in Microsoft documentation to understand. We translate the complexity into clear recommendations and straightforward billing.
We're proactive, not reactive. Rather than waiting for a licensing problem to surface, we monitor your environment continuously and flag issues - or savings opportunities - before they become headaches.
Whether you're setting up Microsoft 365 for the first time, trying to make sense of a complicated existing subscription, or looking to cut licensing costs without cutting capabilities - Coast Techs is here to help.
