Application Software compliance management

Establish software resource database, combine SMARTLIC with legal application software as the auditing standard to determine the compliance of the client software.

Compliance status overview and controlled status

Usage rate overview

Display the usage of each module and version of the software, and summarize the usage rate of the statistical software; effectively reflect the use of the floating license software within enterprise.

Real-time usage rate

System provide the real-time usage status of floating license , based on software, modules, users and other dimensions, Administrators are easy understand the busyness of various software for efficient management.

Usage details by user

The system continuously records the usage information when user login/logout software. Administrator can Implement multi-dimensional queries for the total usage time of the user and the effective use time, according to time period, software, module, user, department, and the like.

Usage statistics by module

Statistical reports for the usage record of floating licenses in a certain period of time. Query by long term: analyze the busyness use of software for long-term, suitable for budget planning; Query by short term: suitable for checking specific abnormal events.

SMARTLIC collects a large amount of software usage data. In addition to analyzing the usual software usage behavior, it can use the "average utilization rate" and "software activity" to help managers make correct procurement plans according to the budget. This feature is available for:

 Determine the number of first-time genuine software purchases (from stand-alone to online)
 Precise renewal of expansion software
 Develop a planned software procurement plan and contract management

Urgent purchase suggestion assistence

Based on the lack of to get licenses analysis, providing reference data for urgently purchase of floating licenses.

Planned purchase suggestion assistence
