Thanks for your answer. I struggled up to now to get a definite answer. Still hoped that we could add SA to a SQL Server Enterprise SPLA Licence.
In terms of licence cost we might go for one of the cloud options then - if we can. I'm not opposed to using cloud services at all but some of our customers are cautious and as service provider we have to take that into account.
