Licensing Compliance
Loyal IT understands the importance of purchasing the proper software licenses to cover your network operations.
Managing high-value software assets is difficult for two reasons:
- the increasing complexity of software licensing agreements
- the lack of understanding of the regulations relating to Software Licensing Compliance
Using unlicensed software puts your business and network at risk. A compliance audit may result in expensive fines. Software license compliance is a good business practice.
Don’t wait for a compliance audit to find out if your software is license compliant. Loyal IT can protect you from penalties by giving you the necessary support.
To ensure you are following the right licensing compliance rules:
- Buy the correct licenses that will cover your network operations.
- Avoid using illegally obtained software.
- If you buy used or secondary hardware, make sure you buy new licenses for the operating system software and applications.
- Avoid installing software on un-entitled devices or using software features not purchased.
- Remove licenses keys on a device if you are planning to transfer or repost license keys onto a new or different device.
A global view of your software licensing operations and actual usage data prevents miscalculating your software licensing needs and putting your business at risk of non-compliance.
