Licensing
Software licensing is complex. You need to be certain that all your business software is being used within the terms and conditions set out in your licensing agreements. Running unlicensed software can leave you open to vendor fines or even a lawsuit for copyright infringement. But it's also important to make sure you aren't paying for licenses that aren't being used. Telecom Computer's experienced software licensing specialists can help your business navigate this complicated landscape successfully. We can help you set robust Software Asset Management (SAM) policies-an essential tool for inventorying, controlling and protecting your organization's software assets throughout all stages of their lifecycle. Implementing a SAM program can improve your licensing compliance, boost your audit readiness and improve visibility into your software spending. It can also save you money. With the rise of cloud based computing, and the integration of computing, storage and networking components into converged infrastructures, software licensing is becoming even more complicated. Licenses may be issued on a per-user, per-device or multiple-instance basis. And you need to be sure that the software you license will work with the hardware you have on hand as well as your virtualization platform. Our longstanding relationship with major vendors including Microsoft, Citrix, Symantec and VMware allow us to provide our customers with accurate and detailed road maps to the software licensing process.
