Flexera and ServiceNow
Asset management to license optimization
Software license agreements and license models are highly complex. It’s difficult to control costs and derive maximum business value while trying to maintain compliance with licensing terms. Enterprises are frequently out of compliance for some vendors and over-subscribed for others. ServiceNow's Asset Management solution provides an excellent framework for implementing a software asset management (SAM) program, but achieving a high-level of Software License Optimization maturity requires more:
- Automated and Accurate Application Recognition
- Continuous License Compliance to Reduce Software Audit Risk and Avoid Unbudgeted True-up Expenses
- Efficient Management of Software Contracts and Maintenance Renewals
- Optimization of License Consumption to Reduce Ongoing Software Spend
- Full Software Lifecycle Management
- Insight that allows Vendor and Application Consolidation
