If the Business Software Alliance (BSA) came knocking at your door how prepared would you be?  Would you be ready when they walk in the door or try to hide?

You may have a pretty good idea how many licenses of software you own and how many copies are installed in your environment; but do you know exactly where the purchased orders and licenses are?

Software manufacturers' revenues are down and guess how they are making up that revenue?  Audits!  Audits are on the rise and each instance of a violation can be a fine of up to $150,000.  None of us are prepared for that in today's economy.

By implementing Asset Lifecycle Management with a purchase request process with approvals, audit tracking and the ability to attach documents such as POs, license files and proof of disposal you can be prepared for that knock on the door. 

With Asset Lifecycle Management you can also do the following:

- Know the exact status of each computer or other assets (Ordered, Received, Assigned, Inventory, Disposed, etc.)

- Monitor vendor performance, how many RMAs have you had with each vendor?

- Know which location each asset is in, assets at each geographic location could have different tax rates.

- How many assets does each division, department or cost center have

- Aggregate data from multiple data sources (Finance, HR, IT, etc)

Wouldn't it be worth taking the time to join us next month for an online web demo of the new release?  Automate your IT, protect your company.  The audits are happening, be ready.
