SOFTRAX Revenue Management System (RMS) is now certified and live on Microsoft Marketplace. We want to explain what that means, what it will unlock, and why organizations managing committed Azure spend should be thinking about this now rather than later.
First: What Microsoft Marketplace Is
Microsoft Marketplace is not a directory where vendors sign up and appear. It is a curated, Microsoft-certified catalog of enterprise solutions that have completed technical validation, security review, and enterprise-readiness assessment. Getting listed required us to complete Microsoft’s certification process. We did. SOFTRAX RMS is now part of the same vetted catalog enterprise buyers use when procuring software through Microsoft.
Something Most Finance Teams Have Not Mapped Out
If your organization runs on Azure and has committed Azure spend or a Microsoft Azure Consumption Commitment (MACC), you may be able to fund enterprise software purchases from that existing commitment — rather than from a separate software budget.
It is called MACC drawdown. When eligible software is purchased through Microsoft Marketplace, the cost counts against your committed Azure spend, consolidates onto your existing Microsoft invoice, and skips the new-vendor onboarding process entirely. This is increasingly how mid-market and enterprise finance teams are buying revenue management, billing, and operational software.
That capability activates for SOFTRAX RMS in our next phase, which is currently in progress.
What Is Live Today and What Is Coming
SOFTRAX RMS is certified and live on Microsoft Marketplace today. Direct procurement through Microsoft, and the MACC drawdown benefit, activates in the next phase. Here is what that unlocks for organizations with MACC or committed Azure spend:
- Procurement through Microsoft
- Consolidated billing on your existing Microsoft invoice
- Azure benefit eligibility, including MACC drawdown
- No new vendor onboarding or procurement track
- No disruption to your existing ERP
What SOFTRAX RMS Handles
SOFTRAX RMS is purpose-built for the revenue complexity that standard ERP modules were not designed to manage:
- ASC 606 / IFRS 15 compliance across multi-element arrangements: automated, auditable, audit-ready
- Subscription and consumption-based billing — handling complex pricing models without manual workarounds
- Contract lifecycle management, with revenue reallocation on modifications, renewals, and cancellations
- Revenue subledger and close acceleration — replacing the manual reconciliation that slows month-end close
This sits alongside your existing ERP. It is not a replacement. It is the revenue layer your ERP was never built to handle at modern SaaS scale.
When to Start the Conversation
A 20-minute conversation is worth your time if any of these apply:
- You want to understand how MACC drawdown works and whether it applies to your organization
- You have committed Azure spend and want to plan how to use it before it expires
- You are evaluating revenue recognition, subscription billing, or close acceleration tools and want to factor Microsoft procurement into the decision
- You want to be first in line for a private offer the moment Phase 2 goes live
We can walk through the procurement model, the SOFTRAX RMS fit, and the timing — no commitment required.
