2Data Information

2Data is an independent software licensing advisory business helping organisations reclaim control, value and leverage across their software and cloud spend. We do not sell software, tooling or vendor services. We work only for our clients, providing independent advice across major software vendors, cloud services and emerging AI consumption models. Enterprise software is increasingly complex, expensive and business-critical. Vendors continue to raise prices, bundle products, change commercial models and introduce new terms, often leaving customers with inflated bills, unused licences and limited visibility of the value being realised. 2Data exists to rebalance that position. We help clients understand what they have bought, how it is being used, what value is being realised and what a better commercial outcome should look like. Our work combines licensing expertise, usage analysis, procurement insight, negotiation strategy and benchmarking to help clients prepare earlier, negotiate stronger and optimise value throughout the contract lifecycle. Whether the trigger is a renewal, audit, true-up, merger, acquisition or cost review, our approach is data-led, commercially grounded and aligned to the client’s business and technology objectives. What makes 2Data different is our independence. We are not incentivised by vendors to sell more. We sit on the client’s side of the table, helping them challenge assumptions, reduce waste, improve contractual outcomes and ensure software investments deliver measurable value. 2Data helps organisations reduce commercial risk, reclaim software value and enter vendor conversations from a position of strength.
