Total Economic Impact(TM) (TEI) study by an Independent Research Firm finds
high impact of SmartTrack for software savings and IT efficiency
Aachen/Germany, March 20, 2017 - To dramatically reduce costs and give
customers deeper insights into their software licenses, Aspera announces the
new release of its SmartTrack platform. Powerful features in Aspera
SmartTrack 4.2 include the ability to create custom dashboard widgets, an
easy view of the license history for every software product, and a single
sign-on for Aspera's family of applications.
Aspera is an international leader in the strategic approach to Software
Asset Management (SAM), and SmartTrack is the industry-standard solution for
large and enterprise companies to identify up to 30% savings and reveal
high-risk compliance gaps.
"The current version of SmartTrack gives customers insights into their
license situation using large quantities of data in the quickest time
possible, even without prior experience using a SAM tool. This information
can then be shared easily with others," explains Stephan Pflanzer, Head of
Development at Aspera. "We continue to guide our customers towards achieving
their ideal SAM setup."
The important new features of SmartTrack 4.2 include:
- Ability to create custom widgets in the dashboard. SmartTrack users can
create a dashboard that is role-specific, quickly view any urgent need for
action, and establish the prerequisites for high quality data.
- Tell-Me-More feature to view products' license history. This one-of-a-kind
feature shows the entire license history for every software product,
including their complex license metrics, making it easy to understand the
company's true license needs and the complexity of today's license metrics.
- Single sign-on for SAM Intelligence and Licence Control for SAP. Now users
can sign into their other Aspera applications while working in SmartTrack.
SAM Intelligence meets the increasing demand for effective reporting, and
Licence Control for SAP answers all questions about SAP licence management,
particularly for "indirect use".
A commissioned Total Economic Impact(TM) (TEI) study conducted by Forrester
Consulting on behalf of Aspera confirmed that "With SmartTrack, the
compliance team reduced the time spent on reconciliations by 50% due to
real-time, accurate license data, saving approximately one-third of its
overall time."
