Software Licensing in Belfast
The whole software estate, not just Microsoft — design tools, accounting packages, CRMs, the SaaS subscriptions bought on a departmental card. We establish what your Belfast business is paying for, who is using it, and where the same job is being done twice under two different contracts.
Why this comes up
The problem
Subscriptions get bought by whoever needs them and never get cancelled, so spend creeps up department by department with no single person able to see the total. Under-licensing is the other half of the same problem, and it surfaces during an audit.
What you get
What we deliver
- A consolidated view of every software subscription and perpetual licence in the business
- Usage checked against entitlement, to find both overspend and compliance gaps
- Overlapping tools identified where two departments bought different answers to one problem
- Renewal calendar with notice periods, so nothing auto-renews by accident
- Ownership assigned per contract, so each has a named person rather than a shared inbox
- A written position you can hand to a vendor auditor without a fortnight of preparation
Want this scoped for your business in Belfast?
Thirty minutes, no charge, no sales script. You leave with a written summary of what software licensing would actually involve — whether or not you use us.

Software Licensing in Belfast — common questions
- How is this different from a Microsoft licensing review?
- Scope. A Microsoft review goes deep on 365 tiers and Entra. This covers everything else as well — Adobe, Autodesk, Sage, Xero, the CRM, and the SaaS tools nobody has catalogued. Businesses that only run Microsoft should take the narrower review; most businesses do not only run Microsoft.
- What if we find we are under-licensed?
- Better to find it yourself than during a vendor audit, where the settlement is not negotiated from a comfortable position. We put the gap in writing with the cost to close it, and you decide the timing.
- Can you cancel subscriptions on our behalf?
- With your authorisation, yes. Notice periods are the trap — a subscription cancelled a week into a new annual term still bills for the year, which is why the renewal calendar comes before the cancellations.
- Do you take commission from vendors?
- Where we resell, the arrangement is disclosed before you decide. A review that quietly earns more from the recommendation than from the work is not advice, and you are entitled to know which one you are getting.
- Do you work with businesses across County Antrim?
- Yes. We are based in Leicester, United Kingdom and work with clients throughout Northern Ireland, including Belfast and the surrounding County Antrim area. Most collaboration happens remotely, and we travel for kick-offs and key milestones.
- What kind of Belfast businesses do you usually work with?
- Fintech and security-accredited systems, plus trading platforms that handle the specific customs position on goods. Beyond that we work across Fintech, Cyber Security, Film & Media, Manufacturing and Higher Education.
- Do you cover the areas around Belfast?
- Yes — we work throughout Northern Ireland, including Lisburn, Bangor, Newry. Belfast is an urban area of roughly 345,000+, and we take on work across the wider County Antrim region rather than the city boundary alone.
