Benefits & Impact of SAM

An effective SAM program supports your overall business strategy, not just the IT infrastructure. Designing a scalable, replicable, and adaptive SAM program based on ISO standards allows you to optimize every area of your business.

Real Benefits. Measurable Impact.

Enables Growth

Traditional. Hybrid. Cloud. As companies continually evolve their software infrastructure, SAM provides the foundation needed to minimize the cost of transition and maximize long-term IT impact.

Enables Efficiency

SAM eliminates redundancies, establishes processes, and creates financial discipline. In fact, studies show that some companies can save as much as 30 percent in annual software costs by implementing SAM programs.

Enables Compliance

With companies using hundreds of software programs in day-to-day operations, SAM helps optimize licenses, mitigate risks, and protect the bottom line.
