С момента создания Windows 8.0 и 8.1, компания Microsoft сосредоточилась на модернизации своего Интернет-портала Windows Store. Думаю, многие согласятся, что Microsoft Store по сравнению с Apple Store был достаточно неразвит в плане доступности приложений и удобства использования интерфейса магазина.

С выпуском Windows 10 в 2015 году Windows Store подвергся радикальному изменению относительно доступности приложений, игр и инструментов. Все это хорошо для сегмента потребительского рынка, но как насчет добавления функциональности для бизнес-пользователей? Компания Microsoft сделала это! Поскольку ранее не существовало интеграции Windows Store в доменной среде, это приводило к проблемам с управлением покупками и лицензированием потенциальных приложений, не говоря уже о многих других проблемах.

Ранее коммерческие предприятия сталкивались с предоставлением финансовой и бухгалтерской отчетности, когда сотруднику компании требовалось приложение из Windows Store. Как осуществлять контроль над доступом, правом собственности и лицензированием актуального приложения? Короче говоря, все это не контролировалось. Кроме того, не было возможности переназначить лицензию. К примеру, если сотрудник увольнялся, то приложение, так сказать, «уходило» вместе с ним.

Поскольку ранее пользователи покупали приложения из магазина, используя свои личные учетные записи (Microsoft Live ID), сейчас пользователи могут купить приложение, используя свои основные рабочие учетные записи, которые администраторы могут установить и которыми могут управлять в их персонализированном Microsoft Windows Store для бизнеса. Для этого необходимо, чтобы пользователи, которым предоставляется доступ, имели учетные записи в облаке Azure.

Несколько слов о преимуществах

Организации могут производить закупки Windows Apps в большом объеме
Закупка, основанная на примере организационной идентичности. Mustercorp.com
Гибкое распределение
Восстановление и повторное использование лицензий
Создание закрытого информационного хранилища (Private Store) для своих служащих, которое включает приложения из магазина, а также Private LOB Apps

Базовые требования

Для того чтобы успешно зарегистрироваться для бесплатного доступа в Windows Store for Business, необходимо следующее:

Учетная запись службы каталогов Azure Active Directory
Необходимо быть «Глобальным администратором» соответствующей организации в Azure AD Tenant.

Технические требования

Internet Explorer 10 или более поздние версии
Microsoft Edge
Текущие версии Firefox и Chrome
Учетные записи Microsoft Azure AD для сотрудников

Как это осуществить?

Пользователь может создать учетную запись в Windows Store для бизнеса на сайте Microsoft по ссылке.

Управление и распространение

Для тех организаций, которым требуются более детальный обзор данных и управление развертыванием приложений могут быть использованы дополнительные приложения распределения System Centre Configuration Manager, Intune и/или другие сервисы по управлению мобильными устройствами.

Существуют определенные разрешения, которые могут быть присвоены пользователям соответствующей организации. Чтобы назначить определенные привилегии, пользователю с ролью глобального администратора на портале необходимо будет в Windows Store присвоить необходимые права.

Пожалуйста, примите во внимание, что в настоящее время можно присвоить права только для каждого пользователя в отдельности с физического портала. Для того чтобы присвоить групповую принадлежность, необходимо использовать Microsoft Azure или SCCM.

Глобальный администратор – данная роль предполагает полный доступ в магазин для бизнеса. Глобальные администраторы могут делать все, что разрешено для административной роли, в том числе они могут подписаться на Windows Store для бизнеса и присваивать роли в магазине другим сотрудникам компании.
Администратор пользователей может присваивать роли в Windows Store для бизнеса другим сотрудникам при условии, если у администратора пользователей также есть административная роль.
Администратор формирования счетов – данная «учетка» имеет такие же разрешения, как и покупатель Windows Store для бизнеса.

Роли и разрешения Windows Store для бизнеса

Назначение приложения

«Глобальный администратор» или «Покупатель» имеют право приобретать приложения и выбирать, присваивать ли эти приложения в Частный магазин компании (Private Store) или напрямую присвоить их отдельным пользователям. Обычно приложения в частном магазине становятся доступными в течение 12 часов.

Частный магазин (Private Store) это возможность Windows Store для бизнеса, которую организации получают во время регистрации. Когда администраторы добавляют приложения в частный магазин, все сотрудники организации могут просмотреть и загрузить их. Здесь у пользователя есть обзор всех приложений, которые были ему напрямую присвоены и у него будет возможность их скачивать.

Если пользователь решает, что он хотел бы выбрать свое собственное приложение, он получит запрос на ввод своих личных данных: имени и пароля Microsoft Live.

Распространение автономных приложений

С помощью автономных лицензий организации могут скачивать приложения и лицензии для их развертывания в сети или на устройствах без подключения к Интернету.

Распределение автономных приложений является альтернативной опцией сетевым приложениям. Развертывание автономных приложений может быть целесообразным решением в следующих случаях:

У пользователей нет учетных записей Azure
Нет подключения к Интернету
Для управления устройствами используется построение изображений

Ваш инструмент управления основными данными (MDM) должен быть сконфигурирован на портале Azure Ad Portal и внесен в Windows Store for Business в раздел «Инструменты управления» (Management tools).

Персональная линия Бизнес-приложений (LOB)

Благодаря использованию персонального Windows Store for Business у вашей организации есть возможность разрабатывать и публиковать ее собственные заказные приложения в закрытом информационном хранилище для ускорения распределения внутри своей организации.
Разработчики приложений в вашей организации или внешние поставщики, которых вы приглашаете, могут стать издателями бизнес-приложений и представить приложения для вашей компании. Приложение становится доступным только для вашей компании.

Приложения запрашиваются через «Центр разработки Windows» (Windows Dev Centre) и могут управляться и развертываться, используя те же методы, которые были иллюстрированы ранее.
Однако до инициации необходимо выполнить некоторые требования:

Ваша организация должна быть подписана на Windows Store for Business
Издателям бизнес-приложений нужна учетная запись Active Developer
Издатели бизнес-приложений должны иметь Приложение в магазине или одно приложение, готовое к публикации.

И в заключении

Windows Store for Business предлагает компаниям среднего и крупного бизнеса преимущества портала гибкого распределения приложений по индивидуальным требованиям заказчика. Дополнительные преимущества включают возможность публиковать их собственное заказное программное обеспечение на своем собственном портале.

Оптовые закупки и переназначение лицензий дают возможность компаниям снижать затраты, так как программное обеспечение остается собственностью организации, в отличие от того, что было ранее, когда отдельным пользователям, которым нужно было приложение, приходилось использовать их личные учетные записи Microsoft Live.

Локальное использование также остается эффективным решением для вышеперечисленных сценариев, где используется решение распределения третьей стороной. Microsoft будет продолжать пополнение функциональных возможностей магазина и разнообразия универсальных приложений.

We announced earlier this year that a new storefront for businesses and organizations would be launching this fall. The new unified Windows Dev Center opened in July with the opportunity for developers to submit apps to the new storefront, and today the first release of Windows Store for Business is available to organizations in 21 markets.

Windows Store for Business is a web-based portal that IT decision makers, purchasers and administrators use to find, acquire, manage, and distribute Windows Store apps across their organization’s Windows 10 devices. This new capability allows you to expand your app reach to businesses, educational institutions, and other organizations.

In this blog I’ll describe the apps that can be found in Windows Store for Business today, walk through the Dev Center experience, and illustrate the organizational and user experience.

App Availability

This initial release of Windows Store for Business supports free apps and custom-developed line-of-business (LOB) apps that organizations provide to employees at no charge. Paid apps, and apps opted-out of organizational licensing in the Dev Center are not available to organizations in this release.

Support for paid apps, and support for in-app-purchases, is planned for a future release. We recommend you submit these apps for organizational licensing now, which will allow these apps to be available to organizations when we add support for paid content.

Acquisition Experience

I’ll walk through how organizations will find and acquire your Windows Store apps, obtain LOB apps, distribute, manage, and make apps available for people in their organization to install on Windows 10 devices. Understanding the process from their perspective is helpful so you can make the right decisions for your apps.

Find and acquire relevant apps

IT professionals can find apps in Windows Store for Business by browsing app collections, searching by keywords, or by browsing app categories. They can also invite a developer to create a custom LOB app. Organizations can acquire one or multiple licenses for an app in a single transaction.

Windows Store for Business – IT professional view

LOB apps

Before Windows 10, organizations with custom LOB apps had to use sideloading or third-party management tools to distribute the apps. With Windows Store for Business, sideloading is no longer necessary. Organizations can acquire LOB apps directly from developers via Windows Store for Business and distribute and manage them via the same mechanisms as other Windows Store apps.

Distribute and manage apps

After organizations acquire apps, they have these distribution options:

Direct assignment to individuals and teams via Windows Store for Business
Placing the app in their private store page in Windows Store for users to find and download
Using a third-party management solution

Organizations manage apps and their licenses in one inventory. They can reclaim and reassign licenses as needed.

The users in the organization will be able to find apps very easily, for example in the private page of Windows Store:

Once the user has installed a selected app, it is updated automatically when an update is submitted through Dev Center.

Dev Center experience

Making apps broadly available to organizations

Windows Store for Business experience begins at app submission. Apps are offered to organizations by default. This allows you to take advantage of the new storefront without any additional steps on your part. While there is no disadvantage to allowing your app to appear in Windows Store for Business, if you would prefer to opt your app out of the process, just uncheck the box for Store-managed (online) volume licensing during the app submission process.

Developers also have the option to select Disconnected (offline) licensing. This allows apps to be installed on unconnected devices, without using the Store’s online licensing system. Organizations with unique security needs or device management tools often need this option to use an app. When paid apps become available in Windows Store for Business, Microsoft will verify all companies requesting to self-manage paid apps before granting them access, and all offline licenses will be watermarked to identify the company that acquired the license.

For more information about organizational licensing in the Dev Center, see Organizational licensing options.

Publishing line-of-business apps

When a company seeks to acquire an app specific to their organization, developed either in-house or from a third party, these apps are also submitted to Windows Store for Business via Dev Center. Organizations can then use Windows Store for Business to manage and distribute that app to Windows 10 devices. It only takes four steps:

In Windows Store for Business: An IT pro professional invites a developer to publish a custom LOB app for that organization.

In Dev Center: Developer accepts the invitation.
In Dev Center: Developer publishes the app targeting that organization

Картинка с сайта: blogs.windows.com
In Windows Store for Business: After the app submission is available, an IT Professional can accept the app and add it to their inventory. They can distribute the app to users in their organization.

So now that Windows Store for Business is live, make sure you add your business and educational apps to Windows Store and select the distribution option that works best for your app. If you develop line-of-business apps, we encourage you to work with your organizations to use Windows Store for Business as a distribution option.

Ahoey sailor,

With Windows 10 Microsoft has released a product called Windows Store for Business. Today we will have a look at what’s behind modern app management. This is also Part 1 of the Windows Store and Store for Business series:

Part 1: Windows Store and Windows Store for Business – Overview
Part 2: Windows Store for Business – Functionality overview
Part 3: Windows Store for Business – Manage Access to the Windows Store
Part 4: Windows Store for Business – Add an online app to your store
Part 5: Windows Store for Business – Managing Apps with Configuration Manager
Part 6: Windows Store for Business – Manage Apps with Microsoft Intune
Part 7: Windows Store for Business – Sideloading Apps with PowerShell and DISM

In this part we will talk about:

what is Windows Store for Business
how to enable Windows Store for Business
what account types do you need
online license vs. offline license
payment and billing options

What is Windows Store for Business?

The Windows Store is a feature that has been introduced with Windows 8 for the first time. In late 2015, Microsoft released their Windows Store for Business making it easier for companies to deploy apps to clients or devices. It can serve up Windows Store apps for volume acquisition and distribution, as well as custom line-of-business apps that are meant for distribution only inside a particular organization. The store for business is available on Windows 10 devices (client and mobile) only.

How to enable Windows Store for Business:

The Windows Store for Business is a functionality that seamlessly integrates within the built-in Windows 10 store application. The store app itself is an universal app which is installed per default on Windows 10 editions. If you now want to enable the store for your company you need to go to: https://businessstore.microsoft.com

Here you need to sign in with a work account. That either means you already have a hybrid account environment where your domain is federated or synced with Azure AD or you have a cloud only szenario.

Accept agreement terms

…and that’s it. Windows Store for Business is set up now.

You can manage the display name in the “Settings” menu in “Private Store”

Now we need to talk about accounts.

Generally speaking it’s quite easy:

For Windows Store – you need a Microsoft Account
For Windows Store for Business you need a Business or Education Account

But what does this mean?

If you allow your users to access the Windows Store they need Microsoft accounts. Unfortunately there’s no way to centrally manage these accounts. Furthermore it opens the epic discussion what happens with purchased apps when an employee leaves the company, because the payment options which you can set in the Windows Store for Business do not affect the Windows Store. Here users can configure their own payment options. If you want them to use the Windows Store for Business you need hybrid accounts. This only hits the scenario of online licenses. If you only provide apps with offline licenses, your users do not need any of the above mentioned accounts. This is also the way how you can disable the store app, but more on this later.

One last thing: Users who need to manage the Windows Store for Business for example to enable it and / or manage apps need a online or hybrid account in any way.

As we’ve discussed this in a previous post there are three ways how this can be done.

But does this mean that you can only use universal apps if all your employees are logged in with a hybrid ID? Nope it doesn’t there’s another way you can deliver apps called sideloading. Sideload means you provide the apps with another delivery option like Configuration Manager or DISM. This option came up with the release of Windows 10. It comes with a new licensing option for developers with the intent to give organizations a way to download and deploy apps within their network in addition to devices that are not connected to the internet. How this works will be covered in Part 3: Windows Store and Windows Store for Business – Managing Apps with System Center Configuration Manager and Part 5: Windows 10 – Windows Store and Windows Store for Business – Sideloading Apps with PowerShell and DISM.

Online License vs. Offline License

But before we talk about sideloading theres one thing left that we need to talk about. Licensing. Within the Windows Store and Windows Store for Business there are two licensing models.

Online Online licensed apps require users and devices to connect to the Store for Business service to acquire an app and its license. Licensing management is enforced based on the user’s Azure AD identity and maintained by the store as well as the management tool. By default app updates are handled by Windows Update.

Offline licensing is a new licensing option for Windows 10. With offline licenses, organizations can cache apps and their licenses to deploy within their network. ISVs or devs can opt-in their apps for offline licensing when they submit them to the developer center. Only apps that are opted in to offline licensing will show that they are available for offline licensing in Store for Business. This model means organizations can deploy apps when users or devices do not have connectivity to the Store.

Online	Offline
All org users need Azure AD accounts	Org users do not need Azure AD accounts
Installation files managed and deployed by the Windows Store	Installation files are downloaded and deployed using org’s infrastructure
Licenses tracked by the Windows Store	No license tracking
Updates installed via Windows Update	Updates installed via Windows Update
Private Store	MDM / ConfigMgr (deep links)	Direct Assignment	Imaging	MDM / ConfigMgr (sideload)	Manual

For more information have a look at this TechNet article: Apps in Windows Store for Business

Payment and Billing options:

You can purchase items from Microsoft Store online using PayPal, or any of the following card types, provided the card has a US billing address:

Visa
MasterCard
American Express

For more information have a look here

If you have any open questions feel free to ask me in the comments below. I will try my best to answer them.

Cheers

With the new Windows Store for Business, organizations can make volume purchases of Windows apps. The Store for Business provides app purchases based on organizational identity, flexible distribution options, and the ability to reclaim or re-use licenses. Organizations can also use the Store for Business to create a private store for their employees that includes apps from the Store, as well private Line-of-Business (LOB) apps or deploy purchased apps offline by Configuration Manager or Microsoft Intune.

Choose the best app store for the right scenario.

With the introduction of Windows Store for Business we’ve an additional choice to provide and deliver apps to end-users. The challenge in this landscape of app stores is to choose the right portal for the right scenario!

Prerequisites

You’ll need this software to work with the Store for Business.

Required

IT Pros that are administering Store for Business need a browser compatible with Store for Business running on a PC or mobile device. Supported browsers include: Internet Explorer 10 or later, Microsoft Edge, or current versions of Chrome or Firefox.
Employees using apps from Store for Business need Windows 10, Version 1511 running on a PC or mobile device.

Microsoft Azure Active Directory (AD) accounts for your employees:

Admins need Azure AD accounts to sign up for the Store for Business, and then to sign in, get apps, distribute apps, and manage app licenses.
Employees need Azure AD account when they access Store for Business content from Windows deices.
If you use a management tool to distribute and manage online-licensed apps, all employees will need an Azure AD account
For offline-licensed apps, Azure AD accounts are not required for employees.

Optional

While not required, you can use a management tool to distribute and manage apps. Using a management tool allows you to distribute content, scope app availability, and control when app updates are installed. This might make sense for larger organizations that already use a management tool. A couple of things to note about management tools:

Need to integrate with Windows 10 management framework and Azure AD.
Need to sync with the Store for Business inventory to distribute apps.

How does the Store for Business work?

Sign up!

The first step for getting your organization started with the Store for Business is signing up. For more information, see Sign up for the Store for Business.

To sign up for the Business store, you need an Azure AD account and you must be a Global Administrator for your organization.

Set up

After your admin signs up for the Store for Business, they can assign roles to other employees in your company. These are the roles and their permissions.

In some cases, admins will need to add Azure Active Directory (AD) accounts for their employees. For more information, see Manage user accounts and groups. Also, if your organization plans to use a management tool, you’ll need to configure your management tool to sync with the Store for Business.

Get apps and content

Once signed in to the Store for Business, you can browse and search for all products in the Store for Business catalog. For now, apps in the Store for Business are free. Over time, when paid apps are available, you’ll have more options for paying for apps.

App types

These app types are supported in the Store for Business:

Universal Windows Platform apps
Universal Windows apps, by device: Phone, Surface Hub, IOT devices , HoloLens

Apps purchased from the Store for Business only work on Windows 10 devices. Line-of-business (LOB) apps are also supported via the Business store. You can invite IT developers or ISVs to be LOB publishers for your organization. This allows them to submit apps via the developer center that are only available to your organization. These apps can be distributed using the distribution methods discussed in this topic.

App licensing model

The Business store supports two options to license apps: online and offline. Online licensing is the default licensing model and is similar to the Windows Store. Online licensed apps require users and devices to connect to the Store for Business service to acquire an app and its license.

Offline licensing is a new licensing option for Windows 10. With offline licenses, organizations can cache apps and their licenses to deploy within their network. ISVs or devs can opt-in their apps for offline licensing when they submit them to the developer center. For more information, see Apps in the Store for Business.

Distribute apps and content

App distribution is handled through two channels, either through the Store for Business, or using a management tool. You can use either or both distribution methods in your organization.

Using the Store for Business – Distribution options for the Store for Business:

Email link – After purchasing an app, admins can send employees a link in an email message. Employees can click the link to install the app.
Curate private store for all employees – A private store can include content you’ve purchased from the Store, and your line-of-business apps that you’ve submitted to the Store for Business. Apps in your private store are available to all of your employees. They can browse the private store and install apps when needed.
To use the options above users must be signed in with an Azure AD account on a Windows 10 device.

Using a management tool – For larger organizations that might want a greater level of control over how apps are distributed and managed, a management tools provides other distribution options:

Scoped content distribution – Ability to scope content distribution to specific groups of employees.

Install apps for employees – Employees are not responsible for installing apps. Management tool installs apps for employees.

Management tools can synchronize content that has been acquired in the Store for Business. If an offline application has been purchased this will also include the app package, license and metadata for the app (like, icons, count, or localized product descriptions). Using the metadata, management tools can enable portals or apps as a destination for employees to acquire apps.

Manage Store for Business settings and content

Once you are signed up with the Business store and have purchased apps, Admins can manage Store for Business settings and inventory.

Manage Store for Business settings

Assign and change roles for employees or groups
Device Guard signing
Register a management server to deploy and install content
Manage relationships with LOB publishers
Manage offline licenses
Update the name of your private store

Manage inventory

Assign app licenses to employees
Reclaim and reassign app licenses
Manage app updates for all apps, or customize updates for each app. Online apps will automatically update from the Store. Offline apps can be updated using a management server.
Download apps for offline installs

For more information, see Manage settings in the Store for Business and Manage apps.

End-user experience

Once you have assigned applications, these will show up in your company’s section of the Business store once users logged on with their Work- or School Account (Azure AD Account). As the illustration below shows I still able to combine both Work- or School account and my personal Microsoft Account (former known as Live ID).

The installing process is straightforward as with regular app installations through the Windows Store.

Once installed, end users are able to use the new installed app. As easy as that!

The same experience on Windows 10 devices is provided on Windows Mobile 10 where users just simply go to the Windows Store App, log-on with their Work- or School Account and install the apps required which made available by your company.

Wrap-up

The Windows Store for Business is the place where IT decision makers and administrators find, acquire, manage, and distribute apps to Windows 10 devices. The greatest benefit for end-users they can just install apps from the Windows Store with a single account, without having to use their personal Microsoft Accounts. With the Windows Store for Business we’ve an additional choice to provide and deliver apps to end-users.

In my next blog about the Windows Store for Business I’ll go into more details how easily it’s to retrieve app’s (offline) and made them available in your company with Microsoft Intune or Configuration Manager.
