Software License Auditing Services
Software license audits are on the rise. Software vendors use the audit process as both a source of revenue generation as well as a mechanism to stop piracy.
These unbudgeted events are scary, disruptive and a drain on resources.
By devising a comprehensive Software License Auditing Service, it will be easier for larger organizations to keep track of software licensing requirements and to stay compliant. This is especially true in an environment where several software providers have made many changes to their licensing models that restrict usage per CPU, Named User Plus (NUP), etc., which adds to the complexity of licensing.
Such frequent changes in licensing rules coupled with the lack of software management and control tools puts organizations at risk of non-compliance. Not to mention the large financial risk arising out of negative reporting in software audits.

We are independent of software vendors and focus exclusively on our clientele and their needs. We also offer a complimentary software license assessment offer.
In our experience, approximately 80% of our customers are non-compliant with software licensing. However, until licensed auditors send them an audit notice, most companies don’t realize it. To help address this awareness gap, we offer our clients a complimentary license assessment. With this exercise, you can identify licensing gaps and surplus quantities.
But, being complimentary does not mean a lack of rigor. For example, we use the same methodology, tools, and data analysis procedures as we do when helping clients with real software audit defense, ULA value assessment, and more.
Our clients get the assessment done without charge as part of the offer. If they report no issue, then we owe nothing. If they note compliance gaps, we provide a summary to our clients. Our fees are due only if our clients want further details and assistance with remediation steps. At the minimum, our clients get the comfort of having their entire deployment audited by our experts.
