kinds of devices

software assets

Unlimited
software vendors

Designed for cloud discovery

Cloud services require special attention for data collection. You’re looking for data about how a vendor’s services are consumed, rather than if a vendor’s software is installed or running.

Is the cloud software owned by your company or rented under an agreement? Can you see past the network and security roadblocks? Do the cloud models let you bring your own licenses (BYOL) or allow a “hybrid” use of the cloud and on-premises? USU Software Asset Management gathers data for all of these scenarios and is closely integrated with our Cloud Cost Optimization solution.
