Read the named users
without touching production.
CerteroX reviews who uses SAP and what they are allowed to do, then recommends the right licence for each person, without installing anything on your production systems.
Priority-ordered Analysis Rules propose the licence type each user should hold, so current, suggested and optimal sit side by side.

Many SAP users hold the wrong licence.
SAP charges by what each user is authorised to do, and the same person is often counted several times across systems. Licence types are usually set at go-live and never revisited. CerteroX does that analysis for every user and shows current, suggested and optimal licences side by side.
- Cost
Pay for the access people really need.
Users are moved to the licence type their role requires, and people counted twice across systems are counted once.
- Risk
Nothing invasive in production.
The analysis reads what it needs without an agent in your ERP, so there is no risk to the systems the business runs on.
- Effort
Rules instead of manual reviews.
Recommendations follow clear, ordered rules you can see and adjust, so the review does not depend on one specialist’s spreadsheet.
