Hi, I'm working for a small non-profit here in the UK, and they've recently received the Azure $2000 grant. Does anyone know if the grant can be used with Microsoft 365 Backup provided through Microsoft Syntex. It says you need an Azure subscription for the pay-as-you-go billing, but it doesn't appear on the list of Azure services. Thanks, RichSolved219Views0likes2CommentsPower Pages - Move to Azure App Service?
Hi all, A NonProfit we're helping are developing their website in Power Pages and “want to host it in Azure App Service”, I assume to make better use of grants. I see there are a couple of features in Preview that support some degree of code customization: Creating new Power Pages sites in Bootstrap version 5.2.2 is now Generally Available - Microsoft Power Platform Blog But from what I’ve seen, it’s not possible to export a Power Page to any codebase with full integrated functionality from the Power Pages portal but rather disconnected code snippets. Do we have a Power Pages expert here who might confirm or deny my suspicions and whether this request is feasible at all? Thank you all for reading.218Views0likes1CommentBest way to merge non-profit onmicrosoft.com domain into existing Primary domain
We have an existing Entra tenant (ABCoriginal.net) configured and secured with 100 users. Our NFP was approved with domain AlaskaBCoriginal.onmicrosoft.com. Want to combine the 2 so I can buy NFP lic for ABCoriginal.net and keep all of the users and configurations. What steps are needed to get this done, and once complete will the Partner relationship with Tech Soup transfer into existing domain?194Views0likes1CommentNFP - Defender for Servers
Hi all, Microsoft seem to want orgs to use Defender for Servers Plan 1 or Plan 2 which is priced via Azure. Is there any discount for NFPs to use this service, or is it expected to use the Azure grant. There's a real price difference between Defender for Servers and the old Defender for Endpoint Server529Views0likes3CommentsHave your say: Nonprofit Leaders IT Strategy Survey 2024

Hello! Is there a way we can trigger manually the call of the YearlyGivingFromEntity Azure Function instead of creating a transaction? The function was in a failed state when some transactions were uploaded. I updated it and it is running perfect now but I would like to get the contact yearly information updated. Any help is highly appreciated!868Views0likes1CommentRemove All Aspects Of Microsoft Nonprofit Cloud From Azure
This is a lengthy background as I want to make sure that when it finally lands on someone's desk that Microsoft begins to understand that using AI to streamline their processes and save money is actually costing them consumers. Not sure if the Admins will keep the post up but will be publishing on my website anyway. As an extremely small Equine Rescue nonprofit with no paid staff and I am the only IT volunteer, any help that IS NOT telling us to Contact Support would be appreciated! BACKGROUND Microsoft Philanthropy is dropping the Azure Grant to $2,000 a year beginning October 1, 2023 and doing away with the the Dynamics 365 Sales Enterprise licenses. They will come in around $23.80 each, per month. We currently run an instance of the Microsoft Nonprofit Cloud with zero data and that runs roughly $2,200 a month without any addons like Entra, Purview, Defender, etc. The reality is that it will be unsustainable as it is an additional $200 a year for Azure and then yet another $285.60 in licensing without any of the recommended addons. Of note is the fact that when we started, we did our own coding because the Partner wanted like $15,000 just to set things up. We were denied any ability to discuss pricing throughout the process. It is almost identical (except we are a nonprofit) to this post. We submitted a ticket to Microsoft on Monday, Aug 7, 2023, 8:39:44 AM as Support request ID 2308070040004383. It is the second one over the past month and no reply. We attempted to contact the Microsoft Nonprofit GitHub Developers here and no reply. Multiple uses of the Contact Us on virtually every location I could find went unanswered including to the Nonprofit Azure Onboarding Concierge and Success Center. The Microsoft Tech for Social Impact Team was also unresponsive. This, all coming after months of server issues which were finally fixed on Ticket . We were further advised that we could not get pricing estimates for really anything on Case 2307300040000011. We were told to call 1-855-270-0615 and Sales told us they could not talk to us because we were a nonprofit. For months, Case Number 2210050040005694 which eventually was merged with Case Number 2210080040001133 because the information was "lost" and then re-created as Case Number2210050040005694 languished because of a server side issue. Six (06) months later and over 100+ entries of useless communications including with a dedicated team from Microsoft Tech for Social Impact with a Project Lead and Engineer were to no avail. Billing remained ongoing, though. Finally, on a separate ticket we were advised that it was Microsoft's issue and it had been resolved. For a month, no issues and then yet another upgrade caused a similar issue killing another couple of months. We were appointed a Meet your Microsoft Advisor and Point of Contact whom ghosted us, as well. DESIRED OUTCOME How do we get rid of the Microsoft Nonprofit Cloud while still retaining the licensing for products? Currently, we have and obviously, we would like to keep our licenses below and SharePoint and all things Microsoft 365 like Teams, etc.: Azure AD Premium P1 Dynamics 365 Sales Enterprise Edition Microsoft 365 Business Basic Microsoft 365 Business Premium Microsoft Fabric (Free) Microsoft Power Automate Free Nonprofit Portal Power Pages vTrial for Makers Obviously, the D365 Sales Enterprise is going away. We are completely in the cloud and an extremely small, all volunteer nonprofit. So, any suggestions to properly remove all of the Microsoft Nonprofit Cloud, it's billing, etc. would be greatly appreciated! I want to emphasize that in this iteration, there was nothing really wrong with the product. I installed it for our NPO as we opted not to pay the $15,000+ to the Microsoft 'Partner' whom they teamed us up with. I have full access to everything and am the only admin and user.

With the recent announcement of changes to both Dynamics 365 licensing and Azure credits, some nonprofits (especially small ones who may have installed the solution but aren't using it) are going to need to find alternatives. Perfect example of this: Remove All Aspects Of Microsoft Nonprofit Cloud Fr... - Power Platform Community Just wondering if anyone has links, resources or experience in removing the 'cost-producing' elements of the solution? Is it as simple as 'unpurchasing' the Dynamics 365 Sales Enterprise licences, deleting the Azure resources and deleting the Power Platform environments? What else is there?Solved828Views0likes1Comment
