SoftwareONE Launches SAMSimple
Today, SoftwareONE,
a leading software portfolio management provider, launched SAMSimple,
an end-to-end Software Asset Management (SAM) managed service that
enables organizations to more quickly realize the full value of their
investment, mitigate compliance risk and reduce the cost of their entire
software portfolio.
Given that the vast majority of organizations globally do not have
mature SAM processes or tools in place, this offering addresses common
SAM pain-points and provides an à la carte solution for customers,
putting results and price back into their hands. SAMSimple takes the
guesswork out of implementing a SAM practice, delivering the expertise,
process and tooling that accelerates a customer's SAM and cloud journey.
By improving SAM practices, organizations can more effectively
transition from on-premises to the cloud and embrace digital
transformation.
"Many business and IT leaders are balancing numerous business
priorities, leaving less bandwidth to focus on implementing a new SAM
practice. With SAMSimple, we are simplifying software portfolio
management, providing more transparency and governance, while reducing
costs and ensuring compliance for all software assets," said Patrick
Winter, CEO of SoftwareONE, "SAMSimple provides the required tooling and
leverages SoftwareONE's expertise and intelligence in software licensing
to give back control of software assets to IT leaders."
SAMSimple automates complex SAM processes, empowering organizations with
a single managed service designed to address the most common SAM
pain-points:
-
Inaccurate Inventory: SAMSimple collates software deployment
data accurately across hardware, virtual environments, operating
systems and cloud platforms.
-
Complex Contracts: It takes he headache out of trying to
decipher software license agreements' complex terms and conditions.
-
Mismanaged Entitlements: SAMSimple offers ongoing entitlement
support so each and every purchase is properly recorded with specific
use rights.
-
Draining Audits: SAMSimple can facilitate and simplify
responses to publisher audits, an often difficult and time consuming
exercise.
-
Scarce Resources: SAMSimple eliminates the struggle to find
skilled resources who know the myriad of licensing complexities for
each publisher.
-
Rising Costs: It offers purchased versus installed
reconciliation, matching inventory and usage against purchase orders
and contracts.
-
Efficiency: SAMSimple delivers cost savings focusing on
shelf-ware by re-harvesting software that is ineffectively used.
SAMSimple is available for immediate use. Additional resources can be
