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.

Yes, secondary licences (i.e. legally acquired second-hand software licences) can pass a software audit. At Evosolutions, we have extensive experience in auditing secondary licenses. We know what documents need to be prepared to ensure that the audit goes smoothly.
