Software Pricing and Software Licensing

Flexera Software Global Consulting Services helps companies develop and implement efficient software pricing strategies and software licensing solutions to maximize their return on investment. Software producers and intelligent device manufacturers face a wide range of challenges when designing and implementing a software licensing and pricing module, including:

• Optimizing the customer experience
• Improving the sales process
• Enabling new pricing models based on customer requirements and customer or market segmentation
• Gaining business intelligence through an increased understanding of how your solutions are being used by customers
• Understanding how revenue models change with software-as-a-service and increased transparency of customer software usage
• Reducing development costs through single binary strategies
• Reducing operational costs through secure internet based distribution

Flexera Software consultants have unparalleled experience in implementing FlexNet Publisher and FlexNet Embedded software licensing modules to meet those challenges and support a broad range of products—from small footprint, stand-alone devices to complex enterprise software with comprehensive fault tolerant requirements.
