SAM managed services
Improve the visibility, cost optimisation, and decision-making of your software assets with a SAM managed service.
See immediate benefits across your entire organisation and cost savings of up to 30% on your software spend.
The role of software asset management (SAM) is one that typically requires a dedicated SAM Specialist who can consistently review, manage, and optimise your licences across multiple vendors and ensure you’re compliant with changing regulations. While some organisations have the budget and resources in-house to support this, we understand that this isn’t achievable for everyone, and extra support is needed to have an effective SAM strategy in place.

Managed SAM service frequently asked questions
A SAM managed service refers to the external management of your organisation’s software and licences. As you add more software and licences to your organisation, it becomes more difficult to manage and ensure they’re up-to-date and being used effectively. A managed SAM service will take this burden away from your team and allow them to focus on other business objectives.
An organisation will typically turn to a SAM managed service when they’re unable to effectively manage and control its software and licences in-house. This service will provide you with the ability to manage your software assets more effectively and ensure they’re compliant, optimised, and aligned with business objectives.
If you’re organisation is having difficulties with managing its software assets and licences in-house, then a SAM managed service would be an ideal solution for you.
