Why it matters

Why legal Windows 11 licensing matters

Windows 11 is built for hybrid work — with support for remote access, data encryption, and secure passwordless sign-in. Microsoft calls Windows 11 the most secure version of Windows ever released. But these protection mechanisms only work on genuine copies of the OS.

Fines during audits

Using unlicensed software is a legal risk for a company, regardless of its size.

No security updates

Pirated copies of Windows don't get patches — Secure Boot and TPM 2.0 can't protect a system that never updates.

No Microsoft support

When a system crashes or a security issue comes up, there's simply no official technical support to fall back on.

Risks from unknown software sources

Downloading Windows from unverified sites is a common channel for malware and data leaks.

Typical consequences of picking the wrong licensing model

The same edition of Windows can come with very different terms, usage rights, and consequences for your business.

If you have unlicensed PCs

Legalizing existing software: the GGWA program

The GGWA (Get Genuine Windows Agreement) program converts an unlicensed or pirated copy of Windows into a genuine, legal status — without reinstalling the system and without losing data or settings.

GGWA licenses are full Windows 11 Pro licenses: they don't require a prior qualifying OS and are sold as a one-time purchase. This solution suits PCs with an OS from unknown sources and hardware with no Windows installed at all.

Upgrading to Windows Enterprise via CSP and enterprise programs

If your company already runs Windows Pro, moving to Windows Enterprise can be done through a CSP subscription or enterprise licensing programs. Enterprise is an upgrade on top of a qualifying OS and, in most scenarios, doesn't require a full system reinstall.

Questions & Answers

Frequently asked questions about Windows 11 licensing

Which licensing program should a small business choose?
For companies actively hiring and looking for flexibility — CSP with a monthly subscription. If you're buying new computers with no OS — ESD. For boxed PCs — FPP. The exact fit depends on your number of seats and how fast your team is growing.
What if the computers already have a pirated copy of Windows?
The GGWA program is the fit — it converts your existing copy of Windows into genuine, legal status without reinstalling the system and without losing data or settings.
Can we move from Windows 11 Pro to Enterprise without reinstalling?
Yes, an upgrade through OV or CSP programs is done without reinstalling the system or replacing hardware. The one requirement is having Windows Pro as the qualifying base OS.
How much does a Windows 11 license cost for a business?
The cost depends on the program you choose (CSP, FPP, ESD, OV) and whether you need an Enterprise upgrade. Thanks to our direct Microsoft partnership, we offer competitive pricing — we provide an exact quote after a free consultation.
