TechNet Subscription Service Retires

Microsoft Corporation has announced the retirement of one of its very popular Microsoft support services. TechNet Subscriptions service will end on August 31, 2013. But, customers can purchase new subscriptions till August 31, 2013 and even activate them before September 30, 2013. But, those existing subscribers will of course be able to access program benefits and download products till the expiry of their subscriptions.

Industry experts at Microsoft support services tend to feel that the move by Microsoft to retire TechNet can be largely due to the fact that other people including few software pirates also enjoyed the product keys and other benefits provided by the popular subscription. This means that they got the feeling that that they are indirectly aiding or helping the software pirates in their work. Though this can be a pretty valid reason, there are many things unclear as to why others should suffer because of that. People who have been enjoying these subscriptions are losing the package provided by the subscription.

While TechNet Standard package did cost Unites States Dollars 199, you have to pay Unites States Dollars 599 for a TechNet Professional with Media subscription where you receive software products in DVD format as well. In case of all subscription packages, including e-learning course collections, the things that will definitely help you to update the knowledge, the absence of future subscriptions after August 31, 2013. Additionally, Microsoft also provides useful professional support through various discussion forums with priority and online chat.

The world’s largest software company apparently refused to disclose any further clarification, when InfoQ reached out to its official spokesperson with various questions regarding the above development. This has been the case or approach recently for most things they’re asked to expound on.

As you can infer from the above discussion, TechNet is much cheaper than its full blown Microsoft Developer Network subscription package. So, as an alternative to TechNet, the software-zilla intends to provide free services that will include a new TechNet evaluation center. This new TechNet evaluation center will be offering free evaluation software for limited periods of 90 to 180 days. The software maker is planning to phase out the TechNet service completely by September 30, 2014.

This sure looks unfortunate for subscribers who were enjoying such cheap services. But, the software maker is at least handing out some free evaluation software till 2014, September.
