Software Asset Management Providers 

Software Asset Management Providers like ThingsAt specialise in managing and optimising an organisation’s software assets throughout their lifecycle. Our primary goal is to ensure that software resources are used efficiently, cost-effectively, and in compliance with licensing agreements. 

Software Asset Management (SAM) is a set of practices and processes designed to manage and optimise an organisation’s software assets throughout their lifecycle. The primary objectives of SAM are to ensure that software is used efficiently, cost-effectively, and in compliance with licensing agreements and organisational policies.

Key SAM services offered by ThingsAt include inventory management, licence compliance including tracking license usage and managing renewals, optimisation such as reallocating underused licenses, consolidating software, and eliminating redundancies to reduce costs, procurement and deployment to ensure that the right tools are available to the right users at the right time, and detailed reporting and analytics.

By offering these services, we help organisations maximise the value of their software investments, maintain compliance, and streamline software management processes.
