Software Audit
Secure a highly informed, cost-effective defence when a vendor investigates.
Software licensing is a complex and constantly evolving process. Finding the right tools for your needs while ensuring compliancy, optimising spend and negotiating contracts that can take months, sometimes a year or more. Too many organisations risk using poorly negotiated contracts to save time. Microsoft, Oracle, IBM, and SAP agreements, which typically account for 80% of spending, require extensive preparation and challenging negotiations that, if unsuccessful, create significant financial risk.
SoftwareOne Publisher Advisory Services support your decision-making with insights developed from 30 years of commercial experience dealing with the world’s leading software publishers and cloud providers. Our experts help keep you compliant, optimised and prepare you to negotiate a favourable contract that achieves your business goals.
Our Publisher Advisory Services include compliance reviews, software audit preparedness, contract renewal support, and software asset management (SAM) tool services that deliver valuable insights into spending. They are available on a project basis or as ongoing managed services. We deliver reliable, actionable, vendor-neutral advice about what works best for your organisation's current and future needs.
