Why Choose Certus

IBM works closely with Business Partners to reach small and medium-sized customers as well as large customers, in order to deliver solutions that provide a competitive edge.  The intent is to provide customers with the best total solution available, which in many cases is a combination of IBM software products and services, consulting and support from IBM Business partners.

Choosing Certus for IBM software licensing gives you access to all the same products, pricing and service that you would experience when buying direct, with the added advantage of a local service provider who can get to know you personally and back-up your software purchases with support and service offerings.

Certus Solutions is certified to sell and implement all IBM software products, which means that with a single partner you can procure and maintain IBM software under your Passport Advantage agreement and ensure that it's installed and operating to your requirements without the overhead of managing multiple service providers.  The end result is lower administrative costs for you, and the assurance that your licence purchases and project requirements will always be aligned.

Certus offers a dedicated licensing team, who are IBM sales certified and backed by over ten years experience as IBM software resellers.  With detailed knowledge and experience in Passport Advantage, IBM software products and licensing models, dealing with Certus on new purchases and maintenance renewals can offer advantages in:
