FAQ

The answer is yes. Within the EU and EEA, if someone buys a perpetual licence of software, they can transfer it to another person - without needing the copyright holder's (e.g. Microsoft's) permission. This is because the distribution rights have already been exhausted on the first sale.

There are vendors on the market who advertise the latest versions of Microsoft products at suspiciously low prices. In most cases, however, they don't sell the actual software, but only the activation keys - which is like buying just the key to the car, but not the car itself. Such purchases can expose you to serious legal problems and penalties, especially during an audit, because the key and invoice alone are not enough to prove legal ownership. With us, you always get the complete package, including legal certainty.

The legitimacy of all secondary software is supported by appropriate documentation, which you will always receive upon purchase. This contains key information such as the origin of the licence, the licence number, the uninstallation declaration, etc. Such documents are proof that all legal requirements regarding the transfer of ownership have been met. Our company provides these documents automatically, so you can be sure that you are buying with complete transparency and in accordance with the law.

Yeah. Secondary licenses have the same access to updates as new licenses - including security patches, bug fixes and enhancements. These updates are provided according to the official lifecycle of the specific product. Software purchased from us behaves identically to a new product directly from the manufacturer - including support and features.

We mainly buy used Microsoft perpetual licenses such as Windows, Office, Windows Server, SQL Server and others. The licenses must be of EU origin and no longer in use.

Yes. For legal redemption, the origin of the licence must be documented - invoice or delivery note, declaration of retirement and confirmation that the licence originates from the EU/EEA.

After sending a list of licenses and documentation, we will check their suitability, prepare a quotation and, upon agreement, prepare a purchase agreement. After signing and confirmation of removal of the licenses from your systems, payment will be made.

Yeah. Used Microsoft licenses such as Windows Server, SQL Server or CALs (Client Access Licenses) can be fully deployed in a hybrid infrastructure - just follow the license terms.

Definitely. Businesses often use Microsoft 365 for email and collaboration while using Windows Server or Office licenses for servers and PCs, saving budget.

This is the ideal compromise between IT modernisation and cost optimisation. It allows you to take advantage of the cloud where it makes sense, while dramatically reducing expenses by using cheaper but legal licenses for on-premises infrastructure.

No, if the licences were acquired legally, with complete documentation (e.g. invoice, decommissioning declaration, EU origin). If properly documented, used licences will pass the audit without any problems.

These are usually licence keys, invoices, contracts, a summary of software installations and a compliance statement. For used licenses, proof of legal acquisition and decommissioning is important.

It is recommended to keep a complete record of software and licenses, to perform regular internal checks and in case of uncertainty to use the pre-audit service (“software health check”) offered by our specialists.
