Good news for security partners: Microsoft has extended the promotional pricing on the Microsoft Sentinel 50-GB commitment tier through June 30, 2026 — originally set to expire on March 31.
Even better: customers who purchase during this window will lock in the promotional price until March 31, 2027.
What Is the Offer?
The 50-GB commitment tier for Microsoft Sentinel launched in public preview on October 1, 2025, with promotional pricing. It provides a more cost-effective and predictable pricing model aimed squarely at small and medium enterprise customers.
The headline number: up to 32% off pay-as-you-go pricing (maximum discount is region-dependent).
Who Is This For?
This is particularly relevant for:
- EA partners - CSP partners - Direct resellers — especially indirect resellers serving the SME segment
The promotion is available in all regions where Microsoft Sentinel is sold and can be used with both existing and new purchases.
Important: The promotion cannot be combined with other Microsoft Sentinel discounts.
