License

This is a question that many executives find difficult to answer with certainty.

Non compliance with software licensing regulations can arise accidentally, by the purchase of a “good value ” pc delivered with bundled software that may not be licensed, by software down loaded from the internet by well meaning staff or more usually by “Corporate Over-Use” of licensed software in the business. What this means is, the business purchases for example 5 single user licenses but is actually using more than five either separately or on a network.

Infringement for whatever reason is now a serious Criminal Offence and renders staff and company directors liable to Unlimited Fines and up to Ten Years imprisonment for each offence with NO mitigating circumstances. Policing of Software Licensing is increasing with the formation of FAST the Federation Against Software Theft and the realisation by the software vendors that enforcement is a potential revenue earner.

If you are interested in moving this concern externally we can provide an automatic audit of your total IT system on a once off or ongoing basis to ensure that you are and remain legal. Most companies generally see this as a low priority non-profit making activity, until they get caught! 

We can help you establish a Software Asset Management program that will provide you with all the information and tools you need to ensure that you business is compliant.

Good software asset management can help you determine what software you need and don’t need. It can enable you to take advantage of volume license discounts and can show you how to most efficiently deploy software across your business.

Bad software management can lead to bad publicity, fines and legal costs associated with litigation and Company directors being held individually liable, both criminally and civilly. Don’t fall into the trap many others have.
