Software and licences

No. We are neither a reseller nor a distributor nor an approved partner of any publisher, so we promise no price obtained on that basis. You buy straight from the publisher, in your company name, with your own means of payment and your own terms. Our role is to say what to take, in what quantity and in which edition, then to configure all of it properly. You pay us for the time spent and nothing else, and no commission is there to bend the advice.

It depends on the product and on how stable your headcount is. Publishers offer several commitment lengths, and the choice affects both the price and the moment when seats can be reduced. Those terms move often, so we check the current ones and put both options in front of you converted to an annual cost, so the decision is made with open eyes.

That is the usual starting point; nobody calls us once everything is tidy. We compare what is installed and used against what is being billed, then propose precise moves: fill the gaps, step down a plan, cancel, or move to free software where that is enough, for instance an open office suite on machines that only ever read documents.

We neither sell nor deliver hardware, and we do not travel to sites. You buy it from your usual supplier and we will gladly prepare the specification, so that the machines match your licences and enrol themselves into device management. Unboxing and the first power-on are done by an employee, to whom we send written steps; we take over from there remotely.
