“Software is the neural system of modern business processes and organizations.”

Understanding, procuring and managing software is often complex and of strategic importance – inefficiencies in these areas frequently lead to excessive costs.

ROI through individual time savings: The License Library makes it possible!

The time savings are so significant that it is worth considering this factor separately – discover your savings potential!

i
This means:
  • Internet research for sources & documents
  • Specific information requirements for use rights
  • Research for release processes
  • But also further research on: OSS, fonts, volume lincense agreements, use cases
Research processes per week (1 - 5): 3
i
The time required for your research processes is needed for the calculation.
Consider the following factors that can influence your research scenario:
  • Level of familiarity with the manufacturer (e.g. A to C vendors)
  • Sources provided by the manufacturer and their accessibility (license and support portals, direct communication)
  • Type and quality of the use rights texts (e.g. highly obfuscated or unclear usage rights parameters)
  • Time spent on internal communication
  • Any further information required (e.g. analysis of volume license agreements, fonts or copyrights)
  • Any problems that make it necessary to commission a service provider (use cases)
Derive the median time required from these factors and adjust your entry if necessary.
Average review duration per process (0,5 - 3 hours): 1,5 hours
i
In order to calculate your savings potential, we need information on your personnel costs.
(Note: Your details will not be saved and will only be used to calculate your individual ROI.)

To determine the monetary expense, please enter the employee's gross annual salary.
(Salary range for license managers according to StepStone, as of 02.2025: € 47,900.00 - € 66,200.00. These values may vary due to outsourcing or varying location costs).

For the calculation of the actual research costs per hour, we take into account:
  • Non-wage labor costs in the amount of 23%
  • Working time per year: 43 weeks = 1,720 hours
Formula: Research costs per hour = (annual gross salary + non-wage labor costs) / 1,720 working hours
Gross annual income of the employee (€ 35k - 70k): € 50,000.00
Your details will not be saved and will only be used to calculate your individual ROI!
Calculated research costs

Without the License Library, your research costs will be significantly higher. Many of these processes require extensive specialist knowledge, searching for hard-to-find sources and time-consuming coordination - resources that could be better invested in strategic tasks.

With the License Library, these costs can be drastically reduced. Our platform gives you direct access to validated information, saves valuable time, and avoids unnecessary costs.

Take the opportunity to make your processes more efficient and eliminate hidden costs!
Without License Library
i
Using the License Library eliminates the need for time-consuming research and the manual review of use rights. The platform can also be used to request solutions to individual licensing issues.

Calculation:
We calculate a time expenditure of 10 minutes per process.
Although it is often possible to retrieve information more quickly, we also take into account communication costs and, if necessary, comparative research.

Special case:
If the information you need is not directly available, we will research it for you free of charge and make it available via the License Library. This "EULA Check" usually only takes 1–2 working days, depending on the manufacturer's response time.

The ROI calculation through the use of the License Library depends on many factors

Direct factors

Saving time

Research efforts are time-consuming!
Decentralized sources, obscure usage rights and marketing-oriented manufacturer pages make the search tedious. The License Library offers you a central source for all license information – from documents and usage rights to open source and font licensing. We have bundled the relevant information for you and prepared it in a comprehensible way so that you can find everything at a glance and access it immediately!

Indirect factors

Avoiding errors

Costs for subsequent work, additional expenses, customer complaints, contractual penalties, etc.

Increasing productivity

Optimization of approval and procurement processes and associated communication

Commercial optimization potential

Low-threshold portfolio and contract optimization through more efficient use of resources
