Tuesday, March 10 at 11:00am PT / 2:00pm ET

Trying to exit or considering the renewal of your Oracle Unlimited License Agreement (ULA)? With proper planning and advice, you can help control the certification process, not Oracle.

• When to plan your exit strategy to avoid lock-in and free up budget

• The traps of virtualization in a ULA
• How to help take control of the certification process

Join Craig Guarente, CEO of Palisade Compliance and former Oracle GVP responsible for License Management Services (Customer Audits) along with Jeremy Sayler of Rimini Street to get guidance on ULA certification plus reduce your support costs, free up resources and focus on your new IT initiatives.

LIVE WEBINAR: Oracle’s End of Year Tax

Tuesday, April 14 at 8:00am PT / 11:00am ET
Most Americans are currently dreading this time of year because it’s tax time. Tax returns need to be submitted to the federal government and companies and individuals either have to pay the government a fee or will receive a refund if they’re lucky.

Did you know that Oracle’s fiscal year end (May 31) is very similar to the US tax season? Oracle may try to investigate your current usage of their products with an audit so they can slap you with an end of year fee. Or, they may do everything possible to have you sign a new deal before year-end. Oracle’s entire year often comes down to the last two weeks in May.

Before you get bombarded with Oracle sales reps, join this live webinar with Palisade founder and CEO Craig Guarente and learn how to take control of negotiating with Oracle’s sales teams.

You’ll walk away with a better understanding of:
• Important dates and deadlines to Oracle’s fiscal year
• How to negotiate with Oracle during year-end
• Reasons to not sign a deal by year-end
• Stealth audit tactics to look out for

During this interactive webinar, you will have a chance you ask Craig any year-end questions you have. Please submit your question ahead of time when you register.

Register even if you can’t attend live and we will email you a link to the recording afterwards.
