Licensing remains the core of SoftwareONE’s Software Portfolio Management methodology, ensuring customers’ software and Information Technology (IT) goals are strategically roadmapped from a commercial, compliance, and technical perspective. In order to accommodate this expanded methodology, SoftwareONE has grown from its original 5 employees, and is now approaching 2,000 certified technology professionals across the globe. SoftwareONE’s US subsidiary is leading this growth, with opportunities opening for sales personnel passionate about software and IT advisory services.
