Software Asset Management (SAM) solution provider Snow Software has revealed that a quarter of organisations have ditched their legacy tools to optimise their SAP licensing.
The company claimed that its Snow Optimizer for SAP Software solution has been adopted by 25% of the organisations in the past year alone.
The increase was recorded after the company replaced the SAP license management tool for the Snow Optimizer for SAP.
Organisations are adopting the new technology because the solution resides inside the SAP ABAP interface, and they were being able to meet business requirements.
With Snow Optimizer for SAP, organisations are being able to reduce the administrative overhead related to SAP license by more than 80%, with the internal chargeback mechanism also immensely accurate.
Snow Software SAP products general manager Claus Uwe Hodum said: "Snow Optimizer for SAP Software is a critical component of Snow’s ‘fourth generation’ Software Asset Management offering, which aims to give customers a common platform for managing software use across all devices, from mobile to desktop, datacentre to the cloud.
"Already we’ve seen global brands using our solutions to reduce their SAP expenditure by millions of dollars. Combined with low acquisition costs and quick implementation times, that’s a compelling argument in the SAP licensing world."
SAP and KPMG have given certification to the Snow Optimizer for SAP, and the technology provides an end-to-end solution for SAP discovery compliance, optimisation, metering and license retirement and recycling.
