SAP® license management and software asset management

The new benchmark for safeguarding your investments!

Your SAP® landscapes are at the very heart of your applications. Value creation is almost always linked to an SAP® license. But do you have the right one?

We support you throughout the entire life cycle of your SAP® licenses for both users and engines.

Companies change, ERP processes are adapted. Roles are developed further and highly granular authorization concepts are required for security. The switch to S/4HANA means your SAP® landscape is changing from an on-premises solution to a hybrid solution. All these changes mean negotiating new SAP® licenses!

Do you have any questions?

We look forward to hearing from you if you have any questions on these topics.
