Managing
Oracle

Oracle can cause headaches because of confusing usage rights, complex license metrics, and virtualization restrictions. We understand how you feel. Our team of experts will help make sense of your complex Oracle estate by providing a clearer view of your entitlements, the way Oracle operates, and how to overcome the challenges Oracle poses.

Here’s how managing Oracle can throw you off your game:

Software License Audits are punitive, time-consuming, and often result in unbudgeted compliance costs
Oracle renewals are challenging to understand and negotiate
SAM tools don’t completely or accurately measure usage for all Oracle products including DB options/packs, middleware, and applications
Oracle relationships are typically lengthy, which makes it difficult to keep track of license documentation that’s consistently being added and amended

Oracle Verified SAM Partner

The Oracle Verified Software Asset Management (VSAM) Program empowers customers to maximize ROI on their Oracle investments through proactive management of their Oracle license entitlements. Additionally, customers who complete a managed service under the Oracle SAM Program with a VSAM Partner may be eligible for audit exemptions.
