With the SaaS application offer type on Microsoft's commercial marketplace, you can offer your software as a subscription service to customers. This option is available for both server-based and true SaaS products, giving you flexibility in how you package and price your solution. By leveraging Automatum's expertise and the power of the commercial marketplace, you can monetize your product and reach a global audience of potential customers and partners.
Server-based products in the Azure Marketplace are pre-configured virtual machine templates that allow users to swiftly launch and operate applications on Microsoft Azure's Virtual Machines.
These listings provide a platform for vendors to showcase their software and solutions in the form of ready-to-deploy images. Customers can easily discover, purchase, and deploy templates directly to their Azure environment, ensuring a seamless setup process.
Vendors gain exposure to a global audience on Azure, while customers benefit from a streamlined deployment journey, backed by Azure's compatibility and security standards. Billing for software or services linked with the server-based product is integrated into the customer's Azure account, delivering a unified billing experience.
If you're considering listing on Azure Marketplace, partnering with us can provide you with the necessary support for both short-term and long-term success. With our expertise, you can get your product listed in less than six weeks, compared to the typical 3-4 months it may take on your own. We handle the entire process from Partner Center onboarding to transactable offer configuration.
