Oracle license cost optimisation

Take control of your Oracle software license estate 

Many organisations struggle with Oracle’s complex licensing policies, often paying for unnecessary products or facing risks due to non-compliance. Unplanned vendor audits can lead to unexpected costs and significant stress, as many customers are unaware of the detailed contractual obligations and policy nuances. 

Our Oracle license cost optimisation and managed service provide end-to-end consultancy to help businesses, like yours, take control of your Oracle software estates.  

As an independent, technology-agnostic advisor, we prioritise giving the best possible advice for your unique situation. 

We guide you through Oracle license compliance, cost reduction, and management complexities, ensuring you understand your estate and make informed decisions tailored to your requirements. 

The result: significant financial risk reduction—over 82% on average in audit scenarios—and, in one case, reducing a customer’s bill from £17 million to £100,000.  

We enable you to realise value for money and peace of mind.
