Software licensing and procurement is a complicated and time consuming challenge. The introduction of Clouder further exacerbates the process.
- Vendors talk in SKUs and bundles with often confusing naming;
- Licensing models are complex and tedious, especially when mixing traditional on-premise usage with Cloud subscription or even different legacy versions of your still valid perpetual entitlements;
- The world is dynamic and ever-changing. Today's priorities, (IT) requirements, and options can be entirely different from tomorrows;
- The associated endless stream of documents capturing your rights and obligations such as the Product Terms and agreements, change rapidly;
- Having all that specialist knowledge in-house (often for multiple vendors) is nearly impossible and not efficient as most clients do not need a full-time license specialist.
You want to know what you need when it comes to your dynamic IT environment. The overkill of jargon and options combined with often confusing information makes it difficult to control your spending and understand your rights and requirements. Inadequate comprehension of rights and requirements can result in higher costs due to overcommitting, insufficient solutions, or incorrect compliance claims.
