SAM for IT Administration

For the Benefits of Complete Organisation

Tight budgets, increasing performance requirements for hardware and software, top-heavy administration, sprawling IT infrastructure, security risks, high costs...

These are familiar signs that it is time to perform an in-depth analysis of your hardware and software resources. Time for SAM Services. Time for profitable process consulting.

 

Use SAM for greater security

Clarity means security. SAM-System clearly identifies all your installed software assets, with the help of our unique software identification database (DNA-database). By creating a unique key based on the attributes of each file, SAM-System can identify all installed components and the security systems available to your IT infrastructure. This makes it easier for you to pinpoint where you need to install antivirus or other critical software – and introduce security measures in plenty of time.

Use SAM for lower costs

Another good reason for maintaining and documenting your IT resources properly: structuring your assets helps standardise your workflow. This saves time and money – and stress! It also improves efficiency in the long term. With SAM, you can slash the cost of training, IT support and maintenance. What‘s more, you can clearly see where investment is required. In this way, SAM helps you check whether your purchases are necessary and justify your spending if you need to. This is particularly important in times of shrinking budgets.

Use SAM for better planning

What‘s missing from your IT infrastructure? Where will you need to upgrade, and what can be put off to a later date? Successful IT planning starts with an analysis of existing assets. SAM kickstarts this process by providing valuable information about all your IT components and their usage, which helps you plan more accurately. You can even use SAM to plan migration projects. For example, you may need to find out what hardware needs upgrading in order to run new software solutions.

 

Controlling costs and managing risk

Software Asset Management is all about controlling costs and managing risk. The full objective of SAM is to manage, control and protect an organisation’s software assets, including management of the risks arising from the use of those software assets.

IT systems are an expensive asset: It pays to manage and maintain them properly. Our SAM Services ensure that every element of hardware and software being used is correctly licenced and that the costs involved are an accurate reflection of the company's actual requirements.

 

Every day without SAM costs money - the sooner you discover its associated savings, the better. We will provide all the support you need.
