Giva eSoftwareManager Benefits

Giva eSoftwareManager is an excellent complement to Givas eHelpDesk. Giva eSoftwareManager enables you to track software history, license status, and ownership. People in the IT organization need to make decisions about software assets every day. If asset information is readily available, then it can save your organization time and money.

• Avoid Costly License Compliance Audits –  If you are using more software licenses than you have purchased, it can cost you a lot of money in penalties. According to the Software & Information Industry Association (SIIA) the non-compliance penalties include: (1) triple the cost of each unauthorized license, (2) destruction of all illegal copies, and (3) the forced purchase of legal copies to replace all illegal ones. In addition, the negative publicity from such an audit will affect the creditability and goodwill of your company.
• Save Money by Managing What You Own –  When employees leave your company, the Software & Hardware Inventory report will provide you a listing of the software assigned so that you can "release" licenses and re-assign them to other employees. This saves money because you can re-use licenses rather than purchasing new ones.
• Plan Corporate Upgrades  –  Do you need to scope out the work required for an upcoming software upgrade? The Software Inventory Summary report provides all software assets by vendor, product, and license type allowing you to easily scope the project. You can then plan your upgrade by department to optimize customer training and scheduling. You could also use the parent/child tickets to manage the project. The parent ticket can contain all the details of the upgrade and each child ticket can be used to track the work for each IT asset upgraded.
• Data Mining of Software Information –  You can customize your own reports that allow you to perform data mining on all of your software asset information.
• Streamline Physical Audits –  Giva eSoftwareManager allows you to run reports of all the software assets in your inventory and then verify this with a physical audit.
