ManageSoft Professional Services has a proven track record of successful Software Asset Management (SAM) implementations. We have aggregated this experience to create a set of targeted service offerings that will help streamline your implementation process. We can supplement one area of your SAM project or provide a complete desktop-to-datacenter implementation. Managesoft offers the following SAM services. 
SAM Capability Assessment
The SAM Capability Assessment is a light-weight process to assess your current SAM systems and the value they deliver, compared with industry best practices. SAM process and capability maturity comes from a series of improvements made over time. The SAM Capability Assessment provides a valuable baseline before each round of changes and can be used to calibrate business value improvements over time.
Enterprise Compliance Manager™ Implementation
Our Enterprise Compliance Manager (ECM) implementation service provides a design workshop that involves key stakeholders in scope definition and the assembly of SAM data in a central repository that is easily accessible by SAM practitioners. The completed implementation allows you to lock in additional cost savings through improvements in processes, systems, and tools.
SAM Connectors
Your enterprise has its own unique codes to identify a variety of data from multiple sources including spreadsheets, databases, and proprietary systems. Our professional services team can develop specialized “connectors” that load information for purchases, contracts, assets, third-party inventory, corporate structure, and users into our Enterprise Compliance Manager database. The service includes testing and an initial data load from each connector.
Custom Report Development
ECM ships with many of out-of-the-box reports, but you may need something special — anything from a change in format to a completely new view into your data. To maximum the value you receive from ECM, our consultants work with you from specification of content and layout, development and testing, and through implementation in production.
Application Recognition Library Subscription
The Application Recognition Library service provides ManageSoft customers with application titles updates that are specific to a customer’s enterprise up to four (4) times per year, based on customer inventory data in ManageSoft or Microsoft SMS, SCCM formats. Our service processes application installation evidence and yields commercial software application titles that are added to the customers library of application titles.
License Definition Service
Our License Definition Service (LDS) consultants create software license definitions that typically include license type, use restrictions, quantity, duration, and more. This detailed information is input into our license and contract management system—Enterprise Compliance Manager™ (ECM)—to enable a license compliance position to be reported. These licenses typically represent the applications carrying expensive maintenance renewals, the largest return for license optimization, or the most likelihood of a vendor audit. Let our team reduce your time to value for implementing your overall license management process.
