9 Enterprise Software Licensing Mistakes



No central repository:

A central repository can help a company in many ways. It can serve as a one-stop shop for accessing the software license proof allowing operators to quickly comply with vendor audit requests. This can definitely save time and also money.

Not tracking renewal dates:

Enterprises always need to keep track of software license agreements and renewal dates. Once they lose track of this, it can lead to various vulnerabilities of lapses in software assurance or other maintenance programs. This eventually will lead to various cost and management issues.

Not purchasing maintenance at the right time:

The best and the right time for maintenance is when enterprises are looking for an upgrade. For example, Adobe usually has a string of software scheduled for release every year. So if enterprises go for maintenance just before the release, they would automatically be eligible for a price cut and also will be eligible for product upgrade.
