Enteprise E3: The Most secure edition of windows
Credential Guard
Get additional protection for users authenticated on your network against malware running in the operating system. This helps prevent Pass the Hash attacks – one of the key tactics used in security breaches.
Device Guard
Get extra protection to keep your devices safe from malware, untrusted apps, and executables.
AppLocker management
Help prevent the execution of unwanted and unknown applications within your network by locking down which apps and sites you want – and don’t want – to run on devices.
App-V
Simplify application management. Because applications are not installed directly on end user devices, there are no conflicts or compatibility issues to worry about and your apps stay current and protected with the latest security updates and functionality.
Managed User Experience
Optimize security by customizing and locking down the user experience on specific devices – such as kiosks – so they can only perform certain functions.
Why Enterprise E3 is Better with EMS
Even more security
Enterprise E3 enhances the advanced security features in EMS with additional protection from malware using features like Credential Guard and Device Guard.

FAQ AND OBJECTION HANDLING
Objection
Response
Why would I want to move to subscription-based licensing?
With subscription-based licensing you can save on up-front costs by paying monthly, only for the users you need. You’ll also spend less time managing devices and licenses and get a simpler process for staying compliant, since there is no more need for device counting and audits. And since other Microsoft cloud services, such as Office 365, use subscription licensing, you can now manage all of your cloud services with one partner, using the same easy, affordable per-user, per-month billing model.
What’s the benefit of having a partner manage this?
If your business has no or limited IT staff it can be time consuming to manage device purchasing and deployment. Being able to rely on a Microsoft partner like us– a company with years of experience in Windows and cloud deployments— for the day-to-day management of devices and subscriptions frees up your IT resources to focus on more strategic priorities like growing your business. We can also work with you to develop a customized device strategy based on your business needs and help manage your technology, including additional cloud services or other IT needs, as your business grows.
Are my devices going to be secure since this is cloud-based?
Yes, they may actually be more secure for two reasons:
All devices will stay current with the latest security updates and patches through the cloud.
Windows 10 Enterprise E3 is the most secure edition of Windows, relied on by many of the world’s largest companies and governments.
Isn’t upgrading to Windows 10 Enterprise going to be the usual painful process?
Instead of wipe-and-reload deployment, we can upgrade your qualifying devices “in-place” to Windows 10 Enterprise, preserving data and settings, as well as updating apps and drivers when possible. All with no reboot required. Before the upgrade, Windows will check for anything that is not compatible.
We can provide an assessment of your current devices and software to identify and resolve any possible issues. Upgrading to Windows 10 Enterprise – either from Windows 10 Pro or an older version of Windows – is already easy, and with our assistance, it will be even easier.
Why should I buy Enterprise E3 through CSP instead of Enterprise E3 with SA through Open?
CSP offers monthly billing for Enterprise E3, which can be easier for a smaller business to manage than paying the up-front annual volume licensing fee required with Enterprise E3 with SA.
The Enterprise E3 offer in CSP is available per user with up to 5 devices each, whereas Software Assurance offerings in the Open program only offer per device licensing.
The CSP subscription will only activate Enterprise edition for licensed users, simplifying compliance.
There is only a 1-seat minimum requirement and 1 year commitment with Enterprise E3 for CSP vs. a 5- seat minimum and 2 year commitment via the Open license option.
Enterprise E3 with SA may require some in-house IT resources to manage it, whereas with Enterprise E3 for CSP we can manage all aspects of implementation and deployment.
Do we get MDOP, VDI, LTSB, and downgrade rights?
These services and features are not offered through Windows 10 Enterprise E3 for CSP. If they are critical to your business, you should consider Windows 10 Enterprise E3 through Open.
How many seats do I have to buy?
There is only a 1-seat minimum requirement, so you can purchase Enterprise E3 only for users who really need it.
What’s the commitment?
There is a 1-year commitment with Enterprise E3 for CSP vs. 2 years with an Open License. With Enterprise E3, you can also adjust the number of seats throughout the year, as your needs change.
How many devices are covered per user?
With Windows 10 Enterprise E3 for CSP each user can have up to 5 devices, enabling greater flexibility and productivity for your employees. 4b 5 6
