The GitHub + Microsoft EA Blind Spot
GitHub is owned by Microsoft. Yet 71% of organizations negotiate their GitHub Enterprise agreement completely separately from their Microsoft EA, forfeiting bundling options that can reduce total GitHub costs by 20-35%. Procurement teams that align GitHub negotiations with their Microsoft EA renewal consistently achieve substantially better outcomes than those handling them independently.
Are You Overpaying for GitHub Enterprise?
Our GitHub benchmark report compares your Enterprise Cloud, Copilot, and Advanced Security rates against enterprise deals, and assesses whether your Microsoft EA creates bundling leverage you're not using. 48-hour delivery, Confidential.
Use Cases
Common GitHub Benchmarking Scenarios
Where engineering leaders and IT procurement engage ISVCOSELL on GitHub deals.
01 · Renewal
GitHub Enterprise Annual Renewal
GitHub Enterprise renewals increasingly involve Copilot upsell and Advanced Security expansion proposals that significantly increase total cost. Our benchmark reports give procurement teams the data to evaluate which elements are priced competitively and which are inflated.
02 · Copilot Deployment
GitHub Copilot Enterprise Rollout
Organizations rolling out Copilot to 500+ developers face significant per-seat cost decisions. Our benchmark data on Copilot Business vs. Enterprise negotiated rates, and bundling economics with GHEC, enables accurate financial planning and negotiation positioning.
03 · Microsoft EA Alignment
GitHub + Microsoft EA Review
For organizations with Microsoft Enterprise Agreements, aligning GitHub negotiations with EA reviews creates significant leverage. We identify the optimal timing, bundling structure, and negotiation approach for combining GitHub and Microsoft EA renewals.
04 · M&A Due Diligence
GitHub Contract Review for Acquisitions
Engineering-heavy acquisitions often include substantial GitHub Enterprise commitments. Our benchmark reports validate whether target company GitHub pricing is at market rates, and identify post-acquisition consolidation opportunities if the acquiring company already has a GitHub EA.
