Salesforce License Management
Support the strategic management of Salesforce contracts, with insight into your cost-reducing optimization opportunities with Certero for SaaS – Salesforce Module.
Why Reducing Costs with Salesforce is a Challenge
Salesforce is a valuable solution to businesses and has a pricing structure to match. Whilst the challenge of ensuring that SaaS subscriptions are being utilized and provide business value is similar across most SaaS products, the added rigidity of Salesforce contracts can mean that license-optimization savings can be harder to achieve, if contracts don’t allow customers to reduce license volumes without incurring financial penalties and ‘lost discounts’, for example.
It is therefore essential that potential Salesforce customers utilize their pre-contract and pre-renewal negotiating leverage to best effect, in order to avoid being out of control and feeling stuck within an agreement that will automatically renew whilst steadily increasing in cost.
Negotiating new commercial terms requires solid business intelligence and that’s what Certero for SaaS – Salesforce Module brings; the essential evidence required to confidently reduce Salesforce licensing costs through strategic procurement.
How Certero for SaaS – Salesforce Module Works for You
Certero for SaaS – Salesforce Module is an out-of-the-box license management solution that gives you clarity and control over your Salesforce licenses and how they’re used:
Reduce Salesforce Overspending
Identifying unallocated licenses and under-utilized licenses that can be reduced and refined upon renewal or reharvested and reassigned.
Manage your Salesforce Entitlements and Limits
Track, trend, measure and alert on how close you are to resource limits within your contracts (data and file storage for example). Prevent breeching Entitlements that would incur extra cost.
Perform Salesforce Cost / Benefit Analysis
Salesforce Organizations (systems) can offer radically different value propositions to the business, depending on their purpose. Understand costs better with clarity over assigned licenses, types and utilization.
Avoid Salesforce Cloud Sprawl
Avoid uncontrolled proliferation of Apps and Plugins from the Salesforce AppExchange portal.
Support Security and Deprovisioning Processes
Understand active and inactive users, with automatically applied intelligence from Active Directory (AD).

Maintain Compliance with Seasonal-Use Licenses
Ensure costs are controlled by adhering to time-sensitive licensing rules.
Manage Salesforce Renewals with Ease
With complete visibility of all Salesforce contracts in a single pane of glass you can proactively manage your Salesforce renewals and negotiate the best possible commercial arrangements.
