Software License Manager - Express Software Manager®

Microsoft License Analytics

In a world in which Microsoft conducts over two-thirds of reported software audits, license models frequently change without notice, and product use rights documents are known to exceed 120 pages, Microsoft licensing risk has never been higher. Express Software Manager offers powerful license analytics for Microsoft desktop and server environments, dramatically reducing licensing risk and complexity, and enabling you to approach Microsoft audits from a position of confidence and knowledge.

Express Software Manager provides deep and reliable visibility into your organization's Microsoft license position through automated calculation of product use rights and consideration of physical and virtual environments—minimizing compliance risk and time spent attempting to reconcile software contracts, purchasing channels, and their associated licensing rules with deployed software titles.

With Express Software Manager, you can:

  • Determine Microsoft product use rights based on the type of agreement under which the software was purchased
  • Apply product use rights (upgrade and downgrade rights) to compliance calculations for Microsoft Office applications and Microsoft Windows desktop and server operating systems
  • Ascertain Microsoft Windows Server compliance in Microsoft Hyper-V and VMware virtual environments based on physical and virtual licenses required
