Microsoft

Most organisations are not overpaying because the unit price is wrong. They are overpaying because the SKU mix is wrong: enterprise licences on users who need a lower tier, seats still billing for people who left, and overlapping products bought by different departments. We review entitlement against actual consumption first, then quote. One global client's annual Microsoft cost fell 21% on that basis.

What Microsoft does

Microsoft 365 licensing

Business and Enterprise plans, including the E3 and E5 decision and whether add-ons achieve the same outcome for less.

Azure subscriptions and cost management

Azure consumption under CSP with reserved instance planning and right-sizing of over-provisioned resources.

Server and on-premise licensing

Windows Server, SQL Server and client access licences, including the hybrid use rights most organisations already own and never claim.

Licence optimisation review

Entitlement measured against actual usage to find unused seats, wrong-tier assignments and duplicate products across departments.

Compliance and true-up support

Confirming your position before a renewal or audit, rather than discovering it during one.

Who Microsoft is for

Organisations approaching a Microsoft renewal, businesses whose licensing has grown organically across regions or departments, and anyone who has never had their entitlement checked against actual use.
