IT/Software Asset Management
Ranked #35,921 in Computers & Electronics, #650,320 overall
IT/Software Asset Management is not core business for most organisations, but the effects of poorly managed software assets can be catastrophic at worst, and expensive at best.
This lens is all about giving you access to some of the best thinking around at the moment, without making it too vendor-specific.
I am the principal of Cattle Dog Pty Ltd [1] an Australian company specialising in IT/SAM. We distribute Snow Software and Engagent products in Australia and are great believers in those tools - but most of this lense is about IT/SAM issues you will face regardless of the vendor that provides your tools.
Feel free to contact me [2] if you want to know more about this subject, or think I've missed a good resource or RSS feed on IT/SAM.

Snow Inventory (One-Time Scan License)
from Cattle Dog's Snowy Software web store
Snow Inventory - One Time Scan License (OTSL) gives you the right to perform one scan of a computer within 30 days of purchasing the license, and use the administration console for 90 days. This is the best solution for organisations that are performing a one-off software inventory, or for external auditors looking for a zero-footprint tool that will still give a detailed software inventory. Snow Metering - One Time Scan License
from Cattle Dog's Snowy Software web store
Snow Metering - One Time Scan License (OTSL) gives you the right to monitor a computer for 30 days from purchasing the license. This is the best solution for organisations that are performing a one-off audit of software use (e.g. prior to a Microsoft 'true-up' license review), or for external auditors looking for a zero-footprint tool that will still give a detailed view of the applications actually being run. by Falkayn
