For a second year in a row, Micromail has won Microsoft Ireland’s Licensing Solutions Partner (LSP) of the Year award. The 2017 award was presented to Willy Kelly (Micromail Sales Director) at the recent annual Microsoft Ireland Partner Awards dinner at the Inspire 2017 conference in Washington DC. The Licensing Solution Partner (LSP) of the Year award recognizes excellence in licensing solutions & services, along with the highest levels of customer service. Winning this award again confirms Micromail’s position as Ireland’s leading LSP.
Also, congratulations to our colleagues in Ergo who won two awards on the night, Cloud Productivity Partner of the Year and Mobile Device Management (MDM) and Security Partner of the Year.

After six successful years of ISO 9001:2008 certification Micromail recently upgraded to and were accredited with ISO 9001:2015 certification for its provision of software licensing solutions and Software Asset Management (SAM) services. The awarding body was the National Standards Authority of Ireland (NSAI). ISO 9001:2015 is the latest version of ISO 9001 and is the internationally recognized standard for a Quality Management System which focuses on an organization’s actions to meet and continually improve customer satisfaction and quality requirements.
Micromail is over 30 years in business and continues to be Ireland’s leading Microsoft LSP and Adobe Platinum Partner. The investment in ISO 9001:2015 demonstrates our ongoing commitment to offer our customers the highest levels of service possible.
At this year’s Inspire Conference in Washington D.C. (formerly known as the World Wide Partner Conference) Microsoft announced the release of an all-embracing Cloud and on-prem package which called Microsoft 365 or M365.
Just when you thought that all you had to do was understand the difference between Office 365 E3 and E5, you now have two additional layers of complexity. Microsoft 365 is designed to be a comprehensive Cloud client offering, as well a comprehensive on-prem offering, including everything that was previously part of an Enterprise Platform Desktop (Enterprise CAL, Office Professional Plus, Windows Enterprise) and is now their all-in-one Cloud bundle.
What’s the difference between Office 365 and Microsoft 365?
There are two main differences: Enterprise Mobility + Security and Windows Enterprise
And there are two main versions of Microsoft 365, each built on the E3 or E5 version of their component bundles:
M365 E3 = Office 365 E3 + EMS E3 + Windows Enterprise E3
M365 E5 = Office 365 E5 + EMS E5 + Windows Enterprise E5

As part of our ongoing integration project Micromail and Ergo have teamed up to streamline the annual review/True-Up process using Avast’s Managed Services console to provide remote access to a local MAP workstation on the customer’s site. This greatly reduces the time it takes for us to gather inventory, analyse the results and apply license data to reconcile the installed base with license entitlements under the Enterprise Agreement (where annual True Up services provided by the LSP are included in the program offering).
