THE PROBLEM

Why Enterprises Lose Money on Software Licenses

No Centralized License Inventory Across Vendors

License data scattered across procurement systems, contracts, and spreadsheets makes it impossible to see what you own or use.

Renewal Dates Scattered, Negotiations Happen Last-Minute

Without visibility into renewal timelines, you lose leverage and pay premium renewal rates when renegotiating under time pressure.

Premium Tiers Assigned to Standard-Usage Employees

Overprovisioning with high-tier licenses for users who need basic functionality is a direct drain on your budget.

Overlapping Tools Across Departments Go Unchecked

Teams independently purchase competing solutions, creating redundant license spend that no one is tracking or consolidating.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the license management process?

Our process starts with a comprehensive discovery phase where we aggregate all license data from your systems and contracts. We then conduct detailed usage analysis to identify overprovisioning and optimization opportunities. Based on our findings, we develop vendor-specific recommendations, handle all negotiations on your behalf, and implement approved changes. Finally, we provide ongoing monitoring to ensure sustained savings.

How much can enterprise license optimization save?

Enterprise savings typically range from 20% to 40% of total license spend, depending on your current state and vendor portfolio. Savings come from tier optimization, consolidation of overlapping tools, renegotiated terms based on improved visibility, and elimination of waste. Holograph's 170+ enterprise clients have achieved an average of 40% cost reduction.

Which vendors does Holograph manage licenses for?

We specialize in managing licenses for the six major OEMs that represent the largest share of enterprise IT spend: Microsoft, Atlassian, Adobe, AWS, Google Cloud, and GitLab. If you have specific vendors outside this list you'd like us to address, we're happy to discuss custom engagement options.

How long does a license optimization assessment take?

Initial discovery and assessment typically takes 2–4 weeks depending on the complexity of your license portfolio and the availability of internal data. Once recommendations are finalized, implementation and vendor negotiation can vary from 4–12 weeks based on the scope of changes and vendor responsiveness.

What is the difference between SAM tools and license management services?

Software Asset Management (SAM) tools provide visibility into what licenses you own and how they're used. However, they don't negotiate with vendors, optimize allocations, or implement cost-saving changes on your behalf. Holograph combines visibility with active management and vendor negotiation to deliver actual cost savings and strategic optimization.
