Best Practices for Implementing Software Asset Management

Overview In recent years, Software Asset Management (SAM) has rapidly gained importance among many organizations as a strategic imperative that enables them to achieve maximum value from their IT investments. SAM, at a very basic level, involves integrating people, processes and technology in such a way as to allow software licenses and usage to be systematically tracked, evaluated and managed. The goal: to reduce hard-dollar IT expenditures, human resource overhead, and risks inherent in owning and managing software assets, without compromising the technology and service levels needed for the organization to operate at an optimal level.
