Software companies face unique challenges when it comes to managing licences and entitlements.
Tracking which customers hold what licences, ensuring entitlements are properly monitored, and keeping up with usage limits can quickly spiral into chaos.
These issues aren’t just administrative headaches—they can lead to compliance risks, revenue leakage, and dissatisfied customers.
Without an efficient system in place, managing these critical tasks becomes a juggling act involving spreadsheets, disparate systems, and endless manual checks.
It’s an unsustainable model that often results in:
- Inaccurate licence tracking, leading to underbilling or overprovisioning.
- Missed entitlement renewals, causing lost revenue opportunities.
- Compliance violations, risking legal and financial penalties.
Software companies need a solution that not only tracks licences and entitlements but integrates seamlessly with other systems in use for a unified view of operations.
