Why Buy Software Licences from Licendi?

In the digital age, software has become the backbone of almost every human activity, from business operations to personal entertainment. Whether you need to optimise processes, boost creativity, or simplify everyday tasks, software plays a fundamental role in our lives. Behind every program or application we use, however, there is an essential element: the software licence.

The purchase of software licences is a crucial and often underestimated decision that affects both individuals and companies. In this blog, we explore the world of software licensing in depth, unravelling its complexities and highlighting the reasons why buying licences directly from Licendi can be a smart choice. We will explain why it is completely risk-free to buy licences from us instead of the official vendor, Microsoft.

If you are interested in learning about the key aspects of software licensing and why making informed decisions matters, this blog is for you. Get ready to delve into the fascinating world of software licensing and discover how it can affect your digital life in surprising ways. Let us get started!

Before we begin, it is helpful to understand the concept of software licences. These are legal agreements that regulate the use, distribution, and modification of software. They establish the terms and conditions under which users may use software developed by someone else. Because software is intangible and protected by copyright, a licence is needed to define the rights and obligations of all parties involved. The most prominent example of a company that owns this type of licence is Microsoft. It is one of the largest and best-known technology corporations in the world, offering a wide range of products and services. Some of the main examples of Microsoft software licences are:

• Operating Systems. Microsoft is primarily known for its Windows operating system, which runs on most personal computers and laptops worldwide. Windows comes in several versions tailored for different types of devices, such as Windows 10 for PCs and tablets, Windows Server for servers, and Windows IoT for Internet-connected devices.

• Microsoft Office. Microsoft offers the most popular productivity suite, called Microsoft Office. This suite includes applications such as Microsoft Word (word processing), Excel (spreadsheets), PowerPoint (presentations), Outlook (email and calendar), and other useful programs for businesses and individuals.

  Xbox and Video Games. Microsoft is the creator of the Xbox video game console and offers a variety of games and services related to the Xbox platform. It also provides subscription services such as Xbox Game Pass, which grant access to a library of games for a monthly fee.

Apart from buying licences directly from Microsoft, you can opt for a cheaper alternative: "second-hand" licences. This does not mean that they have been used. They are NOT used.

Here is an example: Microsoft sells 1,000 licences to Samsung, but Samsung only activates 800. The remaining 200 are resold, and these licences become "second-hand" because they now have a second owner. However, they have never been activated and are entirely original and new.

When you try to activate a licence that has already been used, Microsoft displays a message such as "this licence has already been used, try another one", and it is impossible to activate it again. If you would like to learn more about how to buy original and cheaper Office licences, we have a dedicated guide for you.

Whether you are an entrepreneur or a private user, if you are interested in buying a Microsoft Office or Windows licence, here are the main aspects to consider:

1. Licence origin. Buying licences directly from the manufacturer or from trusted sources guarantees that you are purchasing legitimate and authentic products. This avoids problems related to software piracy or the use of unauthorised versions, which could lead to legal sanctions or security issues. By knowing the origin of the licences, you are assured of receiving updates, ensuring you use the latest version of the software with the most recent bug fixes and enhancements. At Licendi, we market products originally placed on the market within the European Union with the consent of the rights holder. This means that the products we sell are fully legal and of European origin. Learn more about why you should not use pirated software.

2. Legal requirements for resale. You need to make sure that the seller of the keys complies with the legal requirements for resale. Here you can find general information about used computer products, an overview of the most important legal information, as well as answers to frequently asked questions from our customers.

3. Auditability. If you are an entrepreneur, pay attention to the documentation you receive when you buy your licences. This way, you will be able to pass an official audit successfully. At Licendi, together with the product key, download link, and installation guide, we send the invoice with your company details.

4. Activation guarantee. When you buy a "second-hand" licence, there is a certain level of risk. To minimise this risk, it is important to consider the purchase conditions offered. For example, in our online store, every licence purchase comes with a one-month activation guarantee.

5. Customer reviews. Checking customer reviews when buying online is crucial. Reviews provide unbiased information about the product or service you are considering. The comments and experiences shared by other buyers give you a more realistic view of what to expect, allowing you to make more informed decisions. Positive reviews also indicate quality and reliability. One of the most trusted platforms for company reviews is Trustpilot. At Licendi, we have hundreds of reviews and an average score of 4.9 out of 5.

You now know the different options available when buying a software licence. If you carefully consider the five aspects explained above, you will be able to get your Microsoft key successfully and at a more affordable price.

Remember that in our online store you can find licences for a wide variety of software at very competitive prices with an activation guarantee. Browse our range of Office 2019 Professional Plus and other popular products:
