Licensing

The right licences, for the right people, at the right cost.

Licensing Overview

Software licensing is one of the most common areas where businesses overpay or under‑license—often without realising it. Platforms such as Microsoft 365 include multiple plans, add‑ons, and feature sets that vary significantly depending on role and usage.

Many organisations assign the same licence to every user “for simplicity”, leading to unnecessary cost. Others under‑license users and miss out on important features such as security controls, device management, or compliance tooling.

Our licensing service helps businesses choose, manage, and continuously optimise software licences so users have exactly what they need—no more and no less.

How Our Licensing Service Works

We start by reviewing your current licence assignments and comparing them to how users actually work. This highlights unused features, missing functionality, and opportunities to reduce cost.

From there, we create a role‑based licensing model, ensuring each user has the right licence tier for their responsibilities. Licensing is regularly reviewed so changes in staff roles or headcount don’t result in wasted spend.

Our approach focuses on:

  • Cost control without feature loss
  • Security and compliance alignment
  • Role‑based clarity
  • Ongoing optimisation

This results in predictable licensing costs and fewer surprises at renewal time.
