Software licenses are business assets, just like the computers, tables and other equipment in your office and should be managed as such. Software Asset Management (SAM) is a series of business processes for managing your company's software assets. SAM helps your organization determine what software license you own, where the software is deployed, and for which upgrades your organization is eligible.

Benefits of SAM
SAM gets your business organized, but the most compelling reason to integrate SAM is because of the cost savings.
  • Keep your information safe by ensuring you have the most up to date software and security patches
  • Improve business performance by having the most efficient deployment of software
  • Obtain peace of mind in knowing you are compliant with your software licenses
  • Show ROI on your current and future software investments
  • No longer spend money on software that are not necessary to your business
  • Efficiently deploy software covered by existing licenses rather than purchasing new licenses
  • Standardize software whenever possible to reduce incompatibility and communication issues leading to reduced support time
  • Take advantage of volume license savings through a centralized software and license acquisition resource
