Software asset management (SAM) helps businesses optimize their budgets by actively governing and automating procurement, usage, and deployment of software licenses and subscriptions. When an employee moves to other locations/teams within the organization, the asset is suitably tagged to ensure that the employee’s location/team is updated in the Software Asset Management database. Regular application and software upgrades happen accordingly.
A SAM program can help the IT administrators identify the number of licenses they have for each software vendor and are being used. It can then provide the SAM team with insights into the unused desktops and laptops and help them plan their inventory better. It also gives an overview of any software license breach caused by an employee or third-party contractor to whom the asset was allocated.
Since the average enterprise uses 500+ software applications, manually keeping track of the users may be cumbersome and cause compliance failures. SAM solutions help administrators to save costs for the company. Proper visibility into the company’s software portfolio allows them to identify multiple opportunities for IT savings. It reduces the risk of software license audit failures and penalties. Better asset utilization and more robust security protocols can be maintained.
A robust SAM solution should be able to track any software from the minute it is requested, through procurement, deployment, recycling, and finally, retirement. There are five types of software licenses - public domain, permissive, LGPL, copyleft, and proprietary. A good SAM solution should be able to keep track of all the software in its inventory and what type of license they have and manage their entire lifecycle. The key features of a robust SAM solution are - automated software discovery, software license management, software whitelisting and blacklisting, software true-up cost, vendor management, integrated ticketing, low stock alerts, and access control.
