For CSPs, MSPs and Azure consultancies

Launch an Azure FinOps service without building the platform.

Add CloudMonitor to the Azure services you sell. You lead the client work. We supply and maintain the read-only FinOps platform in Microsoft Fabric.

  • Read-only Azure access
  • Human-approved changes
  • Built on Microsoft Fabric

Partner evidence

Keep the credit for the results you deliver.

These figures come from published partner stories. We show internal and customer savings as separate results.

Routes to market

Choose how you will sell it before you set the margin.

Use it in a managed service, resell the software, or use it in consulting. Give each option its own contract, invoice, support plan, and renewal path.

Managed service bundle

Best fit

You already run an Azure service and want to add FinOps to each client review.

Your role

Your team runs the service, leads each review, and follows up.

Revenue opportunity

Add reports, advice, and governance to your managed offer.

Software resale

Best fit

The customer mainly needs the platform, while you lead the sale and renewal.

Your role

Your team owns the client and sales relationship for the agreed deal.

Revenue opportunity

Your client price and our quoted partner price determine the resale margin.

Consulting-led delivery

Best fit

You sell reviews, cost-saving projects, or an ongoing FinOps service.

Your role

Your team uses CloudMonitor data to guide the analysis and client decisions.

Revenue opportunity

Charge for advice and delivery. Handle the software purchase separately.

Commercial model

Build the price around the way you will deliver the service.

CloudMonitor's public price follows annual Azure Consumption Revenue (ACR). It does not use seat count or a share of savings. We quote partner pricing for your offer and customer base.

  • Confirm the price band, billing term, and sales route for each customer.
  • Record discounts, minimums, regions, renewals, and support targets in the agreement.
  • Keep service fees separate from the software margin.

Marketplace treatment

A customer's Microsoft Azure Consumption Commitment (MACC) credit depends on how you sell.

Eligible Marketplace purchase

An Azure Marketplace purchase can count toward MACC only if the offer has the Azure benefit eligible badge. The customer must also use an eligible Azure subscription.

CSP private offer

The CSP sets the price and bills the customer. Microsoft says CSP private offers do not earn Azure commitment credit. Do not promise MACC drawdown for this route.

Multiparty or resale-enabled offer

These routes may earn Azure commitment credit when the offer and customer meet Microsoft's rules. Check each deal before you quote it.

Operating model

Set clear owners before the first customer starts.

Name who owns the sale, data access, reviews, support, and Azure changes.

Enterprise Agreement (EA) or Microsoft Customer Agreement (MCA)

Billing access gives the broadest view.

At a supported billing scope, CloudMonitor can show cost and usage, the prices agreed for that scope, and supported reservation data.

CSP or subscription access

Subscription data gives a narrower view.

If the CSP owns the billing access, a customer may use subscription data. That view may omit Marketplace purchases, reservation details, and company-wide costs.

Figures come from published partner case studies. Results vary by scope, starting point, rollout, and working model.

From fit to first customer

Agree on the route, scope, and runbook before launch.

Timing depends on the contract, customer access, and support plan. We start with those facts instead of promising a fixed launch date.

  1. 1

    Agree on the sales motion

    Choose who contracts and bills the customer before you set the margin or promise commitment credit.

  2. 2

    Confirm the data scope

    Check the billing access, subscriptions, and data needed for the service.

  3. 3

    Prepare the customer experience

    Add your logo, rehearse the demo, and record what keeps the CloudMonitor name.

  4. 4

    Launch through an agreed runbook

    Agree on reviews, support handoffs, decision owners, and renewal before the first client starts.

Program fit

A fit for teams that already serve Azure customers.

CloudMonitor suits CSPs, MSPs, Azure consultants, and resellers that want a repeatable FinOps offer. Your team must lead the customer work.

  • You already sell, manage, or advise on Azure services.
  • Your team can own customer reviews and the advisory follow-through.
  • You will confirm billing access and product boundaries per customer.

Partner FAQ

Get clear answers on sales and delivery.

Who can join the partner channel?

The channel is for MSPs, Cloud Solution Provider (CSP) partners, Azure consultancies, and resellers that already advise or manage Azure customers. Microsoft partner status is not required. We confirm regional availability, customer fit, and the appropriate commercial route during the partner-fit discussion.

What can we rebrand for customers?

Reseller mode replaces the CloudMonitor workspace logo with the partner's logo. A small Powered by CloudMonitor mark remains. Screen names, menus, documentation, and support links also keep the CloudMonitor name, so this is a branded workspace rather than a completely unbranded product. See what branding changes before presenting it to a customer.

How are partner pricing and margins set?

Partner pricing is quote-based and tied to the Azure consumption covered by each customer license, not to seat count. We agree the wholesale price and billing route before the first deal. You set the price of your packaged service, subject to the Marketplace or reseller terms for that transaction.

Which partner sales routes can count toward a customer's Microsoft Azure Consumption Commitment (MACC)?

MACC treatment depends on the sales route and the specific CloudMonitor offer. Microsoft excludes CSP private offers from Azure commitment credit. A resale-enabled private offer or multiparty private offer can count when the purchased offer is Azure benefit eligible and enrolled in MACC. We confirm the transaction route and who bills the customer before quoting. See Microsoft's channel sales overview and MACC enrollment rules.

Who handles onboarding and customer support?

The partner leads the customer relationship and service cadence. CloudMonitor maintains the platform and handles the technical escalation path agreed in the partner plan. The agreement defines support ownership, response targets, and handoffs before launch. Onboarding time depends on the transaction route, customer access approvals, and the environments in scope.

How does CloudMonitor isolate each customer's data?

CloudMonitor limits access with the workspace, Azure scope, and roles approved for that customer. Azure writes each customer's cost exports to the storage account set up during onboarding. CloudMonitor then processes the approved cost data in its service tenancy. Confirm the workspace and partner access for each deployment. See the Information Trust Center for the current data flow and controls.
