Are you paying too much for your software licensing?

Whether your organisation relies on Microsoft, Google, or another cloud service provider, it’s essential to ensure that you’re not overpaying for your software licensing. If your honest answer to “Am I paying too much?” is “I don’t know,” then there’s a high chance that you are!

Why You Need a License Review

A thorough license and subscription review can uncover hidden savings, ensure compliance, and optimise your technology investments. Even if you have a trusted IT partner managing your software licenses, an independent review from Capella Computer Solutions can provide reassurance that you’re getting the best deal at the right price.

What Does a License Review Involve?

A license audit is a critical process that ensures your organisation’s software usage aligns with licensing agreements. This helps to prevent unnecessary costs, eliminate compliance risks, and streamline your software expenses.

In our experience, organisations frequently encounter the following licensing challenges:

• Over-Licensed: You may be paying for licenses that are not being used or required by your team.
• Incorrect Licensing: Are you subscribing to licenses with features you don’t use? Are you purchasing multiple licenses when a bundled or alternative solution could be more cost-effective?
• Under-Licensed: If you are using more licenses than you have purchased, you could face significant fines from Microsoft or other providers during an audit.
• Product Duplication: Are you paying for additional software that is already included in your current licensing package? For example, many Microsoft 365 plans include MS Teams, yet some organisations still pay for separate meeting solutions like Zoom.
• Right-Term Licensing: Commitment periods can impact costs. Choosing the right license term—monthly, annual, or multi-year—can lead to substantial savings.
