How wecan help
Microsoft consistently sits in the top three technology spends for IT, but businesses are often unsure if they are maximising and optimising such a substantial investment. That's where Xeretec can help with our free Microsoft healthcheck and ongoing consulting services. Our healthcheck is consistently saving customers between 13% and 36% on their annual Microsoft spend, and improving Microsoft Secure Scores by 20% on average.
Our Licensing Health Check
With our free M365 Licensing Health Check, we can quickly and easily review your entire Microsoft tenant - revealing inactive, underutilised, oversized and unassigned licences, as well as security gaps.
Common Challenges
Spending more than you need to
A lack of visibility into each employee's usage often leads to unused, unassigned, and over-assigned licences, which causes organisations to overspend.
Included security features go unutilised
Failing to leverage security features included in a licence investment leads to duplicated costs with third-party security solutions and impacts your Microsoft Secure Score.
Unsuitable licences for job roles
A standardised Microsoft licensing approach doesn’t take into consideration what each employee uses or actually needs to do their job.
Lack of process for licence allocation
No joiner, mover, or leaver process or policies leads to uninformed decisions, overspending, and security risks around access control.
Limited training for users
Many users don't utilise all available features of their licence simply because they lack the necessary skillset and require training.
Xeretec have been excellent in helping us reduce licencing cost, highlight efficiency opportunities and even governance and security optimisations that are all possible, coupled with a friendly, non judgemental approach. I'd be happy to chat with anyone who needs an external viewpoint.
We recently moved our Microsoft licences to Xeretec and have seen real, measurable benefits since making the switch. Right off the bat, we achieved a 19% cost saving, but the real value came from the added visibility and control we gained through their services. We were able to run a deep-dive analysis into our M365 environment — identifying misconfigurations, unused licences, and potential security gaps that would have otherwise gone unnoticed. The Health Check gave us a clear, actionable roadmap to tighten compliance, boost security, and optimise licence usage.
Working with Xeretec was straightforward and efficient. They identified cost savings and optimisation opportunities across my multiple Office 365 tenancies during an initial health check. When my renewal dates approached, they clearly outlined the process for transitioning services to them. All I needed to do was disable auto-renew. They mirrored the necessary licensing and confirmed the quantities in advance, ensuring a seamless transition. The communication throughout the process was spot on.
Since partnering with Xeretec, we have benefited from their expertise, dedicated account management and access to the portal which offers all the valuable insights of our MS license volumes, empowering us to make informed decisions regarding our usage. The healthcheck conducted by Xeretec was incredibly enlightening and enabled Freedom Fibre to optimise the value derived from our Microsoft licenses effectively.
