White Paper on Software License Procurement at Collaborate 2010

Inatech is launching a new service to help businesses maximize investment in Oracle licenses. ‘eSAM’ will help customers plan and manage software procurement, reduce expenditure and plan for the long term. A White Paper containing insightful information for those purchasing or reviewing their Oracle licenses, will be launched at the Oracle community event COLLABORATE, in Las Vegas.

Visit the Inatech stand to take a ‘license test’ to assess your own organization’s licence proficiency and meet with specialists who can advise on the best way to improve their current licence arrangements.

The White Paper highlights key questions that IT Departments should be asking to ensure rules are not broken, overspending on unnecessary licences or purchasing without planning for the long term. The report summarizes:

· Factors warranting a need to purchase a software license
· Taking stock of existing licences
· Insights into license purchasing
· Negotiating with Oracle

Software Asset Management is an operational issue that can have severe consequences for any business ranging from backdated support payments, to fines, legal disputes, individual and company reputation impact or unplanned and unbudgeted spend.

“The key driver of many license disputes is lack of understanding of the restrictions within the license agreement,” said Inatech’s US Director, Steve Duff. “Inatech’s eSAM services enable our clients to understand the various contracts and products acquired over the years and pro-actively plan and manage their future Oracle strategy with confidence.”
