SAMSimple is designed to address the most common customer software asset management pain points such as:

Gathering Accurate Inventory – Collating accurate deployment data across diverse hardware, operating systems and virtual Environments
Contract / License Complexity - Software license agreements have complex terms and conditions, varying by publisher and products. It is difficult to fully understand and leverage these use rights
Understanding Entitlement - Contracts and entitlements are often not well managed across distributed organisations. M&A activity, divestitures exasperate this problem
Audit - Publisher audit activities and the impact on time and resources
Resourcing - Lack of skilled resources in the marketplace for an internal SAM program
Cost Optimization - Purchased vs. Installed reconciliation to match inventory and usage against purchase orders and contracts
