About

Helium IT Licencing Services

The Software Lifecycle refers to the planning, development and use of a software product. The process is made up of various parts and helps teams to understand how a product is created, implemented and used. The lifecycle is made up of software optimisation, software management and DevSecOps. Our solutions provide the right tools to ensure you as customers can produce, manage and secure your software without experiencing downtime

Software Optimisation

Helium IT employ a proactive approach to ensuring an organisation has the optimal number of licenses. This allows companies to ensure you are purchasing the right number of licenses, avoiding over or under-buying.

There are four concepts at play that form optimisation:

  • Requirements
  • License ownership
  • Inventory
  •  Usage

Best practices to reduce software costs

• Application configuration optimisation

• Recycling software licenses

• Using software asset management tools

How

Helium IT’s Unique Selling Proposition

Optimise Software Spend

Helium IT will ensure your investment in overpriced licences, too many licences, or not enough is monitored, assessed and actioned. Using a software licence optimisation (SLO) tool helps avoid unnecessary costs or problems from use of unlicenced software.

Strengthen IT Security

Helium IT ensure you can rely on software applications, with a reduced risk of security breaches. Our SLO tools help IT departments establish a software inventory, giving them a clear overview of the infrastructure to combat IT risks.

Improve Licence Management

Licence renewals are a never-ending task as subscriptions are taken out at varying times. Helium IT use a SLO tool so customers can improve their renewal processes and maintain an effective licence management system

TESTIMONIALS

What People Are Saying

For years we have been resisting migrating to a new data platform for the business. But we reached a stage where we had no choice. The platform was no longer fit for purpose and we needed technical expertise to safely migrate us to a new platform.
The Helium IT team were brilliant in providing zero system downtime. The project went brilliantly and our global solution is now up and running successfully. If you are looking for technical expertise across Microsoft Data Platforms, I can heartily recommend Helium IT.

Rachel

Head of Data Services

Outsourcing has massively impacted our businesses ability to deliver on data solutions at the coal face. As such we needed to find a partner who could conduct a deep dive into our existing Data solution and come up with a way to improve reporting and optimise performance. Over the last 2 years some SQL reports had taken over an hour to run.

Helium IT came in and conducted an assessment of our environment and produced a comprehensive overview of recommendations and suggestions. When considering the ongoing spend with Microsoft for services, I was surprised our existing service provider hadn’t made similar recommendations. It shows how important it it to seek external expertise when you have a current incumbent who has become complacent and unengaged.
