How can I simplify software licensing and reduce costs?

1E believes SAM can be simpler. Its core function is to gather intelligence about the software running across the business to augment operations and inform security decisions. We applied this as a principle when we co-authored the now global industry standard, ISO 19770.

1E has a produced a ‘Visionary’ solution, according to Gartner, which automates the process of collecting information, performing complex licensing calculations and providing simple answers so you can manage your vendor relationships easily.

Pay your software vendors only for what you need.

The first commercial SAM tool to encapsulate ISO 19770-3 was AppClarity by 1E

How can I avoid software audits?

Software audits are a real risk to any business. They can be highly disruptive and result in significant unplanned costs.

Today, the risk of audit is high and most large companies will experience at least one a year. This is mainly because keeping track of licenses and their use is complicated and thus not routinely performed.

1E simplifies the process of keeping track of all your software licenses. Our platform also makes it easy to adjust licensing measurements when a vendor changes their model or introduces new measurements. All you need to do is create and add real-time query to generate the insight required for a vendor negotiation or audit. It’s simple, like it should be.

Large enterprises will commonly face 4 to 10 audits annually, with an average cost of $100k

Is there an integrated SAM tool that will enable me to leverage software intelligence across operations and security?

1E can identify more software assets than other vendors because we have built powerful artificial intelligence capability into our solution that automatically detects all software assets. Software asset information is used not only to inform your SAM strategy, but also used by 1E’s application management and migration solution to learn which applications must be automatically installed or upgraded. It can also be used by your security teams so they can easily answer essential questions about whether the software is known, used, or current.
