No more outages traced back to a lapsed certificate.
SSL certs, domains, software licences, support contracts and access reviews each expire on their own clock — and the first sign of a miss is usually a down site or a failed login. ExpiryEdge puts every renewal in one register with an owner and escalating reminders, so the renewal happens before the expiry, not after the incident.
Quick answer
IT renewal tracking is the practice of recording every expiring technical asset — SSL certificates, domains, software licences and subscriptions, warranty and support contracts, and scheduled access reviews — with an owner and a due date, then automating reminders so none lapse. IT admins use it to replace scattered calendar entries with one register, fire reminders at 90/60/30/7 days, and prevent the outages and audit findings that follow a silent expiry.
The miss is invisible until it’s an incident
Three failure modes that page you at the worst time.
Certificates expire mid-traffic
A wildcard SSL or intermediate cert lapses and the site throws security errors for every visitor. The renewal was a five-minute job — finding out at 2am was not.
Licences auto-renew or auto-cancel
Some subscriptions silently auto-renew and bleed budget on seats nobody uses; others lapse and lock a team out of a critical tool. Neither is tracked until finance or a user complains.
Access reviews fall off the calendar
Quarterly access and entitlement reviews are an audit requirement, but they live in a recurring reminder everyone snoozes. A missed review is a finding waiting to happen.
Every expiring asset, owned and watched
Certificates and domains
Track SSL, intermediate certs and domain renewals with lead-time reminders, so the renewal lands days before the cutover — never during one.
Licences and subscriptions
Record renewal dates, seat counts and contract value. Reminders give you time to right-size seats or cancel before an unwanted auto-renewal hits.
Warranty and support contracts
Keep hardware warranty and vendor support end-dates in one place, so coverage gaps are caught before the device you depend on fails out of support.
Scheduled access reviews
Set recurring access and entitlement reviews as owned tasks with escalation — so the audit control actually runs every quarter.
How it works for IT
Reminders go where you’ll actually see them
Email is easy to bury. Route certificate and contract reminders to the channel the owner monitors — and escalate to the team lead if the 30-day notice is ignored.
Per-asset channel: Email, SMS, WhatsApp, Teams
Escalation to a backup or lead on inaction
One owner per asset, no diffusion of responsibility
Cadence tuned to renewal lead times
A domain transfer or enterprise licence renewal can take weeks of procurement. The 90-day notice starts the process; the 7-day notice is just the safety net.
Standard 90/60/30/7 cadence per record
Long lead-time items flagged early
Recurring reviews regenerate automatically

From reactive incident to scheduled renewal
Can ExpiryEdge monitor SSL certificates automatically?
ExpiryEdge is a renewal tracker, not a network scanner: you record each certificate’s expiry date, owner and channel, and it fires reminders at 90/60/30/7 days. That lead time is what prevents the mid-traffic expiry — the renewal is scheduled, not discovered during an outage.
How does it help with unwanted auto-renewals?
Record the renewal date and notice period for each subscription. The early reminder gives you a window to right-size seats, renegotiate or cancel before the charge lands — instead of finding the renewal on next month’s invoice.
Can I route different reminders to different channels?
Yes. Each asset can notify a different owner on a different channel — email, SMS, WhatsApp or Teams — and escalate to a backup or team lead if the reminder is ignored as the date nears.
Does it cover recurring access reviews?
Yes. Set access and entitlement reviews as recurring owned tasks. Each cycle regenerates automatically and keeps a dated completion record, so the control is evidenced for auditors rather than just intended.
Can I track warranty and support contract end-dates?
Yes. Hardware warranties and vendor support contracts go in the same register with their end-dates and owners, so coverage gaps are caught before the equipment you rely on drops out of support.
How quickly can we get started?
Import your existing list of certs, licences and contracts and you are live within an hour. Start with anything that would cause an outage, then expand to subscriptions and reviews.
