Managing costs and finding ways to fund innovation are critical in today’s business environment. For Oracle licensees, a large percentage of the IT budget goes to license fees and Oracle support costs. What if that percentage could be reduced and the funds redirected to innovation?
To begin reducing Oracle costs, licensees must optimally manage their contracts to maintain license compliance while avoiding risk. Licensees must also analyze their Oracle support and determine if the support received is worth the increasing costs.
This on-demand webinar featuring Craig Guarente of Palisade Compliance and Dan Ashton of Rimini Street discusses best practices for reducing Oracle costs and specific steps that licensees can take today, including consideration of third-party support.
