Hi, There.
We are small software company with 5 developer only, and we are also Ms
Cerfitified parnters.
We are interested in Ms Visual Studio team system for the application
lifecycle management, loading testing and quality control and verything. I
searched on line and get some information about this, and would like to find
the correct license for us. Now the 2 options seems suitable:

1. Visual Studio Team System 2008 Team Suite with MSDN Premium ($10,939) at
the following location :
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/subscriptions/bb841434.aspx
2. Buy seperate Team foundation server plus the Team suite as well as
Foundation CAL for 5 users.

I know the 2nd option is cost, but can we go for the first option and use to
manage our software product?
Or is there any discount for certified partner if we must go for option 2?

Many thanks in advance!

Hi, There,
By the way, we are certified partner and also MSDN susbcribler, and seems I
can download the 'team foundation server workgroup ediition'
I can download the workgroup edition from MSDN site, if this is the case,
then I can use this as foundation server, right?

The partnership site also told
" Microsoft Certified Partners receive Microsoft Visual Studio 2005
Professional Edition with an MSDN Premium Subscription, at no additional
charge.

Five user licenses for the development and testing environment are
included." What is this one, Team suite?

Really confuzed what should I do now, kindly help !!!

Thanks in advance

Shermaine
