10 BENEFITS OF MANAGED IT SERVICES
Why Do We Need Software & Hardware Lifecycle Management?
Why Do We Need Software & Hardware Lifecycle Management?
"Don’t we get notified from software vendors when our licensing is due? Why do we need someone to manage this?"
It’s true that software vendors often send reminders when licenses are about to expire. But managing your entire software environment requires more than just responding to these notifications.
Succurri’s Lifecycle Management takes a proactive approach to monitoring and maintaining all of your software licenses and subscriptions, ensuring that nothing slips through the cracks. We prevent disruptions caused by expired licenses, security vulnerabilities from outdated software, and unnecessary spending on software you no longer need.
What Succurri Provides:
- License Tracking
We monitor all of your software licenses and renewals, ensuring that your team always has access to the tools they need.
- Vendor Management
Instead of juggling multiple vendor notifications, let us handle communication with vendors, renewals, and any changes to your software agreements.
- Optimized Software Portfolio
Succurri reviews your software portfolio to identify redundant, outdated, or unnecessary applications, helping you save money on licensing costs.
Our approach goes beyond simple renewals. We help you make informed decisions about your software environment, ensuring that your technology aligns with your business needs and budget.
Our Software & Hardware Lifecycle Management Process
Succurri’s Software & Hardware Lifecycle Management services cover every stage of your technology assets, from acquisition and deployment to maintenance and replacement. Here’s how our process works:
1. Assessment & Inventory Management
Our team starts by conducting a comprehensive assessment of your current hardware and software. We document all licenses, warranties, and maintenance agreements, creating a complete inventory of your IT assets. This step ensures that we have a clear understanding of your environment and any immediate needs.
-
Detailed Asset Inventory
Track all of your hardware and software assets, including age, warranty status, and performance metrics.
-
Software License Review
Identify all active software licenses and ensure they are up-to-date and necessary for your operations.

-
Lifecycle Scheduling
Plan for hardware replacements and software upgrades according to the manufacturer’s recommended lifecycle.
-
Budget Forecasting
We help you forecast and allocate your IT budget, making expenses predictable and manageable.

Routine checks and updates to ensure that your technology remains reliable and secure.

5. Disposal & Data Security

-
Environmentally Responsible Disposal

"Can’t we just replace computers when they don’t work anymore?"
While it might seem logical to replace equipment only when it fails, a reactive approach can actually cost your business more in the long run. When hardware is used beyond its optimal lifecycle, it becomes more susceptible to performance issues, security vulnerabilities, and unexpected breakdowns.
Benefits of Proactive Hardware Management:
- Avoid Disruptive Breakdowns
We actively monitor and manage your print devices to keep them running smoothly and efficiently.
- Reduce Downtime
Unexpected hardware failures can cause major disruptions. We schedule replacements strategically to minimize impact.
- Optimize Costs
Instead of making large, unexpected purchases when hardware fails, Succurri helps you plan for replacements, spreading costs over time and allowing for budget-friendly upgrades.
With Succurri’s Hardware Lifecycle Management, you’re not just waiting for problems to happen—you’re preventing them.
