Microsoft licensing is complex by design.

EA renewals, NCE transitions and hybrid cloud exposure mean most organisations walk into these conversations without a clear position. The result: overcommitment, unnecessary spend, licensing gaps and too much leverage on Microsoft's side of the table.

Our strength isn't the rules alone. It's the auditable trail from raw inventory to Bill of Materials. Benchmarks are interesting. Evidence is actionable.

Invisible risks

Why renewals go wrong.

No single source of truth

Inventory lives in RVTools, MAP Toolkit, spreadsheets and SCCM. Nobody has the full picture going into renewal.

Assessments take weeks to months

Every report is hand-crafted. By the time it is done, the data is stale and the conversation has started.

M365 over-provisioning goes unnoticed

E5 is often the easy default, or chosen for a few premium capabilities, without checking whether the full suite is justified, how much value goes unused, or whether E3 plus selected add-ons is a better fit.

Calculations are hard to reproduce

Ask two people to redo the same assessment and you may get two different numbers, with neither fully backed by the assumptions and source data behind it.

Built for clients, partners and consultants.

One platform, three kinds of licensing challenges.

End clients

You're the buyer. Before your next Microsoft contract or subscription renewal, see what you own, what's in use and where you're overpaying, in plain terms.

Microsoft partners

LSPs, MSPs and CSPs. Deliver defensible assessments across your whole client portfolio, at scale, without adding headcount.

Licensing consultants

Independent advisors and boutique consulting firms. The engine calculates the relevant scenarios, you bring the judgement. The credibility stays yours.

Two engines. One defensible position.

SOLAR and T365 each focus on one licensing domain. Together they cover your servers and your Microsoft 365 estate.
