Top 10 Reasons to Choose Softchoice for Licensing

  1. The Established Experts
    Softchoice has been an expert in volume licensing since the concept was invented, and today we are one of North America's premier volume licensing specialists. We even serve an advisory role for top publishers like Microsoft, Symantec, Novell and Adobe, providing input for how best to structure their evolving licensing programs to better meet customer needs.
  2. The Best Reporting Around
    With Softchoice reporting tools, you have the ability to track licenses by purchase date, product type, and even produce your own customized reports. They're also a key resource when it comes to forecasting your future needs, or proving your compliance. You get these powerful features, plus a whole lot more, through your customer portal at softchoice.com
  3. Licensing Done Right
    Softchoice was awarded the 2004 Microsoft Operational Excellence Award, an honor that recognizes the accuracy and efficiency of our licensing agreement processing capabilities. For our customers, that means processing your contracts accurately - right the first time, every time.
  4. Legal Proof of License
    Softchoice's reports are recognized as legal proof of license by the Software Information Industry Association (SIIA). That means that in the event of an audit, even if you've misplaced your old licensing receipts, you can use Softchoice reports to prove you own what you've got.
