IGXGlobal VMware Licensing Assessment

Insight and Actionable Intelligence to Optimise License Investments and Potential Costs

Managing software license agreements is no easy task. With Broadcom’s acquisition of VMware, the renewal process includes a movement from perpetual licensing to subscription licensing, which may be more complex—and expensive—for your organisation. As you explore reducing licensing costs and maximising the value of your VMware environment, it is key to weigh your options and make informed, proactive decisions well before your renewal date. IGXGlobal can help.
