Can't find where to download System Configuration Manager as an M365 admin
-
My company recently purchased M365 E3 which includes MECM/SCCM and I am looking to download the System Configuration Manager and relevant licensing so I can setup a primary site server and start using it. Normally I would check the MSVLC but in this case, we purchased M365 through a MSP/reseller and the software does not show up in the portal. That said, our accounts are still tied to the MSVLC but Microsoft support hasn't been much help so far.
I did find this page that says I am supposed to open a case with Microsoft support and reference the internal article ID 4033838. This, btw, seems completely weird.
EDIT: Scratch all this. I just had to reach out to my SP/reseller and have them open a ticket with MS, who got back to them right away with a download link and license key.

Who was I supposed to buy it from?

I’ve never had a problem with this.

Who did you buy from thought? that company we talked to SW? or someone crappy like Rackspace/GoDaddy?

I’ve dealt with both types and never had a problem.
I have never chosen to buy from GoDaddy, but dealt with it.

Great news - this is what Insight is currently pitching to me to get me to move my licensing through them.
