What does license management software do?
License management is part of software asset management (SAM). SAM, in turn, is a sub-area of IT asset management (ITAM) that has cross-functional tasks. Furthermore, SAM is a building block of a thorough ITAM or ITSM strategy. License management is dealt with
effective management, control and protection of software assets. This also applies to the programs manufactured by the company and licensed by third parties to ensure that all software used in the company is properly paid for and complies with the license agreements.
What advantages does license management software offer?
Enforce compliance with corporate security policies and legal requirements
Increase productivity by using technology to support user and business needs
Reduce licensing and support costs by eliminating or reallocating underutilized resources and licenses
Limiting the overhead of managing the IT environment
