When you pay for Software Assurance, you get all sorts of "free" stuff, including upgrades :)
So the story is really very simple for customers with active Software Assurance on their Windows devices: You can upgrade to Windows 10 Enterprise using media, deployed via MDT or ConfigMgr task sequences, or via other custom deployment processes, just like we demonstrated at TechEd Europe.

My question was aimed at the possibility of MS giving an incentive to corps to jump from Win7 -> Win10 in the same way they have consumers.. http://blogs.gartner.com/jonah-kowall/2015/01/23/the-truth-about-microsofts-new-licensing-change-guest-post/ From: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Marcum, John Sent: 23 January 2015 18:25 To: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> Subject: [mssms] RE: OT: Windows 10 and Software Assurance "free"???
