Purchase Visual Studio and other

[adam1234]

Hi guys,

So my friend and i are looking at starting a company together and we need some software but i dont know how to purchase without MSDN.

Where can i get VS 2013 premium with license as well as SQL Server 2012 R2 with SQL server management studio?

Would prefer to have them on disk and not download.

What would approximate costs involved be?

would be for developing websites as well as apps + ssrs reports for SME's mostly within financial field

All help would be appreciated

As for not wanting to download, you gonna be hard pressed to find it on disc. Mostly everything is digital now. I have everything you need, so could burn it to a few dvd's for you. But you will need your own licenses.

I saw some where that you can renew it, for a few thousand dollars but you get to keep all the licenses you have.
