Enhanced IT visibility for better license management

Licensing continues to be a challenge for all organizations in a hybrid IT environment, with 38% of ITAM teams having increased software waste, and 41% with increased SaaS waste, year-over-year. Government agencies need a multi-level, comprehensive approach to discover savings and achieve compliance of their software, cloud and SaaS licenses.

Frequently asked questions

Flexera’s IT Asset Management solution is optimized for engineering applications and centralizes license server administration for thousands of concurrently licensed applications, including AutoCAD®, MATLAB®, IBM® Rational®, CATIA® and Petrel. This solution enables unprecedented insight so decision makers can optimize opportunities and reduce costs—ultimately, helping to eliminate the common practice of overspending to avoid denials of service.

Flexera delivers high-quality technology asset data (accurate, normalized, enriched) to avoid wasteful practices such as shelfware, duplicative applications and over- or under-licensing. The waste could be significant, as one major federal agency—the Department of Homeland Security—reported saving $181 million in one year simply by consolidating its enterprise license agreements, according to the Government Accountability Office.

A wide array of product use rights for each software title must be accessed, such as upgrade, downgrade, second use, virtual or container use, disaster recovery and failover rights. With this degree of access to comprehensive license entitlements for key vendors, federal agencies and public sector organizations can minimize license consumption and reach the highest maturity level of software asset management capability: license optimization.
