MDM
Microsoft Deployment Manager. Turns raw Microsoft deployment data, on-premise and cloud, into a complete licensing requirement with detailed evidence and analysis logs.
How it works
Connect. Analyze. Report.
Connect your Microsoft deployment data from any source. MDM resolves the licensing position and surfaces the evidence behind it.
Drag your discovery files in, or connect a source through the API. Works with the tools you already run.
Every deployment matched to its edition, version, and the correct licensing metric, on-prem and cloud.
A complete licensing position, with the evidence and analysis log behind every number.
What you get
Editions. Metrics. Evidence.
The detail a raw inventory will never give you.
Edition and version aware
SQL Server, Windows Server, and Microsoft 365 resolved to the right edition, version, and licensing metric. The part that makes Microsoft licensing hard, handled.
On-prem and cloud
Per-core server licensing and per-user cloud subscriptions in one analysis. The full hybrid picture, not half of it.
Audit-ready evidence
Every requirement backed by the evidence and the analysis log behind it. Exportable and defensible, without the manual chase.
License position
Deployed. Owned. Reconciled.
MDM resolves what you run. Your Microsoft entitlements are managed in LCM, and the two reconcile into one Effective License Position.
Entitlement against deployment
Every requirement MDM resolves sits next to the entitlement from the MLS. Surplus, shortfall, or balanced, for SQL Server, Windows Server, and Microsoft 365.
One position, on-prem and cloud
Server licensing and cloud subscriptions reconciled in a single Effective License Position, not two half‑pictures.
Evidence on both sides
Every number backed by its source and analysis log, on the deployment side and the entitlement side. Defensible and exportable.
License and Contracts Manager
The entitlement side
Your Microsoft entitlements live in LCM: the MLS and the entitlement template, normalized into one inventory of what you own.
