Yes, $4.49 a month per user for Microsoft Live Meeting through Open Value and Open Value Subscription, plus you can all sell this today

Did you know that you can sell (or buy) Microsoft Office Live Meeting (you know, the same service we use when we present webcasts or when you attend our virtual meetings) to your clients through the Open Value (OV) and Open Value Subscription (OVS) Programs today? Did you also know that the monthly fee per user is only $4.49 for Microsoft Office Live Meeting Standard and only $16.00 for Microsoft Office Live Meeting Professional? That’s right! At $4.49, that’s less than a gallon of gas (I just paid $4.63 this morning on the way in) and this enables you to conduct virtual meetings without geographic boundaries and with a whole lot less time spent sitting in traffic!

There seems to be a misconception out there amongst some Partners that Microsoft Office Live Meeting is something you are unable to sell or that the pricing is really high or only available to large organizations; however, this could not be further from the truth. Each and every one of you can be offering Microsoft Office Live Meeting to your clients through the OV and OVS programs today and the minimum seats is only 5.
