Microsoft Home Use Programme

The Microsoft Home Use Programme is now managed by Phoenix Software

We are able to offer a valuable service to our customers in managing the promotion of the Home Use Programme (HUP) and processing the orders for all Microsoft Home Use licences.

Please note that Academic Select and Voluntary customers are not eligible for the HUP and that all purchases from these schemes are for personal use only.

WHAT IS HUP?
The Microsoft Home Use Programme enables you to get a licensed single copy of Microsoft Office 2007 desktop applications to install and use on your home computer.

You may continue using this HUP software while you are employed by the organisation owning the original licence and as long as the software you use at work has active Software Assurance coverage.

FIND OUT MORE
To find out how Phoenix can assist your organisation to promote and enjoy these HUP benefits, or if you would like to find out more about the Microsoft Employee Purchase Programme (MSEPP), please contact Caroline Wilson on 0845 265 1312 or email her at caroline-wilson@phoenixs.co.uk
