In practice, companies hesitate to take this step for good reason. There are a number of factors that have to be considered when selling pre-owned Oracle software. In addition, there are always questions about liability. Furthermore, it means a considerable effort for the companies to conduct such a business directly. Special contracts, which consider all important points for the sale of pre-owned Oracle software, have to be drawn up by the selling company. The company taking over has to check the contracts afterwards in a time-consuming way. Often there is a lack of experience on both sides. Furthermore, a legally secure transfer of the pre-owned Oracle software has to be guaranteed. In theory it is easy – in practice it is difficult.

Many questions arise right at the beginning of the considerations:

– Which pre-owned Oracle software can be sold?

– How do I get out of the Oracle contracts?

– Which documents have to be compiled for the sale?

– Will the deal lead to sustainable cost savings?

– What is the appropriate price for pre-owned Oracle software?

– …
