Pre-owned Microsoft software that is legally compliant and audit-proof
With this concept, s2-Software has provided numerous customers with licences from Microsoft - at the best price- in recent years. The principle behind it is quite simple: we trade in used software. Doing so, we ensure compliance with all legal requirements, for example, the legally compliant documentation of the software origin. This way, you benefit from us in several ways: from a 100% legally compliant processing and from affordable prices for original software. In addition, you will receive a personal consultation on all matters relating to the use of pre-owned licences.
s2-Software draws on the experience gained from business with over 20,000 customers. This makes us one of the largest and most powerful providers in the used software segment.
With us, all transfers of used licences are 100% legally compliant and audit-proof. We ensure this with documentation that complies with the ECJ. You can rely on this for all software products.
We offer you the security and trust that are necessary and indispensable when purchasing used software. Our legal and audit-proof processes have proven themselves a thousand times over in practice.
The business model of s2-Software began in 2012 with a seminal judgment at the ECJ (AZ C-128/11). Shortly afterwards, similar rulings followed from the German Federal Court of Justice (AZ I ZR 129/08, AZ I ZR 8/13). These rulings stated that the trade, purchase and sale of used licences for software products are fundamentally legal – provided that certain requirements are met. And that is precisely what we specialise in. With us as your partner, you are on the safe side, both legally and in the event of an audit.
Save up to 72% by purchasing used software licences
The decisive advantage of pre-owned software is the price. Compared to a new version, the IT costs for equipping the company are up to 72% lower. At the same time, you are the owner of the software licences and can implement and distribute them in the company at your own discretion. Therefore, pre-owned licences also offer advantages over software rental offers.
How much can you save with used software?
The savings always depend on the individual case. Depending on the version, programme and year of licensing, prices vary. Naturally, you will receive a binding offer before you decide to purchase used software.
Why should I buy from s2-Software?
With us, there are several benefits for you:
We take care of more than 20,000 customers. As a result, our company has an enormous wealth of experience. We are certain to find the right software package for you too – audit-proof, of course.
On-premise or Cloud? Licences have advantages
There is a trend towards using Cloud offerings for software. However, this is often financially disadvantageous. This was the result of a survey conducted by the Enterprise Strategy Group on behalf of Dell Technologies in February 2020. A majority stated that the Cloud was more expensive than they had expected. 54% of the IT executives surveyed even said that the costs of using Cloud solutions are increasing compared to on-premise operation. It can therefore be worthwhile to opt for classic software licences – especially if the potential for savings through used licences continues to increase.
