Why Licence Optimisation
There are over $30 Billion USD spent on unused software per year. Optimising licenses can be difficult if companies do not automate license optimisation.
More than three in five (63%) of enterprises in Australia and New Zealand are using less than half of the cloud capacity they have committed to (Infosys Knowledge Institute's Cloud Radar 2023 report).
According to IDC: “Software licence complexity costs organizations an average of 25% of their software license budgets.”

Trusted by Our Customers
I worked with Puneet directly for many years when he was our MSFT PDM, and again when he moved to broader APAC roles in MSFT.
Puneet understood our business even though we were unique in the MSFT Partner landscape, and bought highly strategic guidance and leadership which enabled us to grow our business at a much higher rate than regional benchmark year on year for many years. Puneet was expert in navigating the MSFT machine, ensuring we were not only tapped into the right people and programs, but also represented in the most favourable light in terms of MSFT’s overall objectives. This inside info and wisdom saw us invited to many global programs, some in the early beta stages, which raised the profile of the business and gave us additional momentum to grow.
This additional momentum saw us become strategic to one of our upstream partners, who eventually acquired us. Puneet’s partnership was a key ingredient to bring about this highly favourable outcome.
