Vendor audits from software publishers such as Oracle, Microsoft, IBM, VMware, SAP or Adobe can pose significant financial and reputational risks for organizations. We help companies reduce the risks of software license audits, ensure data accuracy, and establish a sustainable license management framework — so that an audit never becomes a crisis.

Our approach

We combine deep expertise in Software Asset Management (SAM), IT Asset Management (ITAM), and legal compliance to help organizations prepare for, manage, and successfully pass vendor audits.

If an audit is not yet started or you want to minimize potential risks:

• Perform a comprehensive analysis of software usage and deployment.
• Identify compliance gaps and develop corrective action plans.
• Optimize license portfolios and reduce unnecessary software spend.
• Provide a clear picture of the company’s compliance and risk exposure.

If the audit is already underway:

• Prepare and structure all documentation and evidence.
• Verify the accuracy of data provided to auditors.
• Support communication and negotiations with the software vendor.
• Minimize potential penalties, back payments, and reputational damage.

Value for IT and Legal teams

• Reduce operational workload and team involvement.
• Save time and resources during the audit process.
• Allow IT and legal departments to focus on core business priorities.

Business outcomes

• Lower financial and reputational risks.
• Transparent and compliant software environment.
• A systematic approach to license and asset management.
• Confidence and readiness for any vendor audit scenario.

Synta brings deep expertise in ITAM and SAM, gained through years of working with companies across different industries and markets as well as major software vendors. We understand where licensing mistakes typically occur, how to minimize financial and legal risks, and how to turn audit results into a foundation for long-term cost optimization, so, we can help your business save thousands or even milloins of dollars on software vendors' fines.
