Second hand software –
Used software – inexpensive and legally compliant at VENDOSOFT
Why keep buying new computer programs when you can save money with used software?
Second-hand licences are a cost-effective alternative to new versions or rental models. At VENDOSOFT you buy software from Microsoft and Adobe – audit-proof and much cheaper than comparable new products.
Activate idle capital by selling used software
Software makes up a significant part of a company’s assets.
Unused software often ends up unnecessarily idle in the event of staff reductions, system changes or the discontinuation of business areas. You can sell these used licences – a service that VENDOSOFT handles by buying up your old Microsoft and Adobe licences.
New, used or the cloud?
A cost comparison
Equipping office workstations needn’t be a major outlay for companies
because there’s a cheap alternative to buying new licences or rental models: used software.
You can buy software new or used, with or without software assurance, as a CSP or from the cloud. But what’s the cheapest way to obtain a licence?
VENDOSOFT has done the cost comparison for you – you might be surprised by the result!

Buy-back guaranteed
VENDOSOFT gives dealers the opportunity to return new and used software purchased from us within three years of the date of purchase. Depending on your wishes, we buy back the licences in part or in full – at a price and date agreed at the time of purchase.
You should keep an eye on the end of support for Microsoft products
The latest Microsoft versions often only offer slightly longer support terms than their cheaper predecessors, which is why it makes sense to buy cheap used software from the outset.

Is buying used software even legal?
Yes! This was decided by the European Court of Justice (ECJ) in its judgment of 3 July 2012. In July 2013, the German Federal Court of Justice again confirmed the legality of dealing in used software licences.
At VENDOSOFT we comply in full with the case law of the ECJ. By purchasing used software from VENDOSOFT, you’re therefore on the safe side legally – even in the event of an audit.
But what does Microsoft itself think about this?
Microsoft recently published a statement on the legally compliant resale of used software in January 2018.
