Second opinion
Do you doubt Microsoft’s proposal or the advice of your LSP or CSP partner? At Q-Advise we approach licensing rules from your perspective, not from the perspective of Microsoft, Salesforce, IBM, Oracle, the auditor or the selling partner. With different suppliers offering licenses at different prices, our second opinion is your key to getting the best value for your money. In just one day we can analyze their advice or proposal and tell you if it really is the best deal for you.

Looking for a second opinion?
Making a major Microsoft software purchase shouldn’t be a leap into the unknown. Our team of licensing experts, contract negotiators, and Microsoft SAM experts are here to help you make sense of it all. We’ll help you determine the right Microsoft licenses for your needs and ensure the costs outweigh the benefits. An unbiased second opinion from us opens up a world of possibilities.
Better deals
It’s not just about comparing quotes; we can negotiate better deals and discover discounts or promotions that you may not have known about. In addition, we read the licensing rules in the interest of your organization. Where the selling party often reads the licensing rules in the interest of selling even more licenses. We are here to ensure that you are not just choosing a vendor or a software product, but also making a smart, informed decision that fits within the organization.
We think ahead
Engaging the Q-Advise team means thinking ahead. We help you choose licenses that not only meet your current needs, but are also scalable for future growth and compatible with your existing infrastructure. This foresight helps prevent costly migrations or upgrades in the future.

Connecting to your company
The features, capabilities, terms and conditions of each software vendor or reseller are different. What matters most is what works for your business. This applies to both Enterprise Agreement contracts, but also to CSP, MPSA and NCE contracts. We are here to ensure that the licenses you choose perfectly match the needs and requirements of your organization. Don’t let cost be the only criterion in your decision. We help you research the terms, negotiate more favorable terms and avoid potential pitfalls such as hidden fees or restrictive clauses. Q-Advise is not affiliated with the major software vendors such as Microsoft, Salesforce, IBM, Oracle, SAP or the LSP and CSP partners.
Protect your organization
Getting a second opinion from Q-Advise is about reducing risk and ensuring that you do not make a hasty decision that involves significant financial investments. It is about protecting your organization from unforeseen challenges that may arise with a particular vendor or license.
