The Oracle License Assessment provides a comprehensive assessment of your organization’s Oracle software license position. By simulating an Oracle audit environment and methodology, this engagement delivers precise reports and compliance analysis identical to those produced during an actual audit.
This proactive approach enables the identification of both over and under-utilized software, offering opportunities to optimize deployments, mitigate risks, and reduce costs. The resulting baseline serves as a critical foundation for informed license purchase, support renewal and audit defense decisions.
