ServiceNow license visibility

Achieve an accurate ServiceNow license position

ServiceNow Subscription Management often doesn’t match your license consumption for some user-based licenses. This results in a heavy manual effort to gain an accurate effective license position (ELP), with an unnecessary dependence on the vendor’s audit report data and no way to validate license consumption. Dependable, accurate data is necessary to achieve an accurate license position.
