Guys need some help,
I'll be buying 25 windows licence for computers at work, would it be better to buy 1 EOM for each computer or take the volume licensing or something. Also if I take the volume licensing, i notticed it has a duration of 2 to 3 years, does this mean that after 2 to 3 years, we have to pay for it again instead of having a working OS as long as the computer is working?

It just means you can pay for the licenses over a 3 year term as its expensive. Microsoft have an open value license system as well. You pay a reduced amount every year and get free upgrades for as long as you subscribe.

It also depends if you want to use things like KMS.

You need to talk to your ms partner about your options in your area however.

If your not planning on changing your machines for 5 years, it might just be better to go with the oem and take out warranty from the oem for the hardware.
