Upcoming Webinar on Microsoft 365
SoftwareOne Japan Co., Ltd. is hosting a crucial online webinar titled "Maximize Your Microsoft 365: Usage Analysis and License Optimization" on March 17, 2026, at 12:00 PM JST. This event is designed for executives and managers involved in Microsoft 365 license management and cost control.
Navigating the complexities of Microsoft 365 licensing can be challenging. Even if a company has fully adopted the platform, understanding which licenses are owned and how frequently they are utilized can prove difficult. For instance, while the E3 and E5 licenses possess robust functionalities, their usage often goes unmeasured, leading to uncertainty regarding their optimal configuration for businesses.
In the face of rising costs due to price revisions and currency fluctuations, decision-makers may find themselves clinging to existing structures due to a lack of concrete data. Moreover, essential information about expenditures and usage often remains siloed among IT, security, procurement, finance teams, and executives. Without the ability to analyze logs effectively, organizations may unknowingly accrue unnecessary costs and compliance risks by reaching renewal periods with outdated information.
This webinar aims to address these challenges directly, leveraging insights from SoftwareOne's experienced consultants. Attendees will be provided with strategies to clarify existing issues and alleviate risks, showcasing the newly launched "M365 Usage Analysis Service." This service emphasizes the importance of achieving visibility into license usage, proper allocation, and the optimization of related costs.
Participants will hear firsthand success stories from previous clients who have benefited from such analyses. Quotes such as, "I finally understand which licenses are actively in use and which are not!" and "This data was invaluable for our license renewal negotiations!" underscore the effectiveness of the service.
This content is especially beneficial for large-scale enterprises facing challenges such as upcoming EA/ESA license renewals, concerns over the redundancy of third-party products, or difficulty in conducting analyses due to limited personnel resources. The webinar will offer actionable tips for establishing a systematic approach to regular license audits.
