is often a time consuming and an expensive process. To effectively manage
this process IT managers need an auditing and reporting solution that enables
them to:
-
Ensure that software assets are efficiently and effectively utilised
-
Reduce the total cost of ownership (TCO) through the use of volume license
discounts
-
Manage technological change through identifying software needs and effective
management of software
-
Lessen the risk of software licensing non-compliance and litigation
