Experience a truly non-biased solution
You must have a clear picture of your license usage to navigate software true-ups or dive into cloud migration projects. Hyperscale assessment tools can help, but they are bias and shouldn’t be calling the shots. They work best as a checkpoint after you’ve chosen a cloud provider and mapped out your hybrid strategy.
What’s often missing is a discovery tool that gives you a full inventory of your SQL Server licenses—along with the insights you need to make smart business decisions. Microsoft used to provide unbiased software inventories for free, but now it’s up to organizations to find their own way to get critical visibility into SQL Server operations.

Preparing for a Microsoft True-Up?
Microsoft’s True-Up process is high-stakes—without visibility, you risk six-figure penalties or security breaches. Free hyperscaler tools push cloud lock-in, and consultancies charge thousands for one-off audits. UpSearch Authorize delivers continuous, no-telemetry audits at a flat rate, saving time and costs (e.g., $335,000 for a client).
