Software Asset Management (SAM) is not often valued; a common image is like an auditor - hungry for data, looking for errors and not giving much in return. In fact, SAM could be seen like a tax return:
Practitioners need to align to business goals and give back. This is the path to change the image, get recognition and most importantly empower the business. With the right positioning, the insight SAM can deliver provides benefits across a wide range of stakeholders.
In this webinar, we profile tactics that SAM functions can employ to help senior management make better decisions. How do you unlock the knowledge that delivers benefits? We look at the path from an overhead to an enabler, a key piece of the technology ecosystem.
