Helping Your Business Get the Most Out of Its Software Assets .

Unlike typical ITAM implementations, you can reduce costs and the risk of license non-compliance through a targeted quick-start methodology that does not require major business process changes or protracted initiatives. Implementing a quicker-starting software asset management (SAM) project can deliver fast, credible results and won't cost you a million to save you a million.

Our Software Asset Management Process

It starts with a thorough, company-wide inventory using a software discovery tool. During this phase, we determine:

  • What software is installed on your corporate PCs and servers?
  • How many installations of an application exist in your operation?

Then we assess existing licenses, retiring the ones not in use and ensuring that the correct and most cost-effective licensing agreements have been selected for optimum savings. In this phase, we research:

  • What applications you are licensed for.
  • Which ones your staff actually use and how often.
  • What the licenses cost and their terms.
  • Whether your company has any type of software license management in place.

If not, we will recommend the best software management program for your requirements and establish an automated monitoring plan. This ensures the efficiencies will continue long after we're gone.

How Our Software Asset Management Tools and Services Benefit YOU:

  • Costs are reduced by repurposing existing licenses and retiring support on unused licenses.
  • Future overspending on licenses is prevented.
  • Contract penalties, fines and legal fees are avoided.
  • Risks are mitigated through better license and entitlement tracking.
In short, Animus Solutions helps your firm save money and avoid contractual hassles by
  1. assessing your current software and licensing,
  2. custom building the processes needed for total software asset management and
  3. integrating the right tools to support those processes.
