Completely Uninstall Azure Deployment of Microsoft Nonprofit Cloud #11

Open frerghost opened 11 months ago

frerghost commented 11 months ago

I have submitted several tickets to Microsoft to no avail. Coming from a Linux background it astounded me that there is no proverbial off switch/delete and really nothing on the internet about how to completely remove this from Azure. It will require a few paragraphs to describe what I hope to achieve, so I apologize for being long winded.

So, 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.

My question is this: 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.

This is a list of the Resources used (most all installed via the Installer):

Is this maintained at all? Similar dead silence from tickets submitted to Microsoft, as well.
