Thursday 5th February 2009 – London

Phoenix Software, in partnership with Altiris (now part of Symantec), is holding a seminar providing a comprehensive overview of how the two companies working in partnership can help you implement an effective Software Asset Management (SAM) programme.

Our seminar will focus on how best to approach and implement an effective Software Asset Management programme - one which will ultimately help your organisation improve the control and manageability of its software assets, while realising significant financial benefits and reducing operational risk.

We will provide you with information regarding how best to implement the technology to deliver compliance and a SAM process. With the release of the new international Software Asset Management standard (ISO/IEC 19770-1), we can talk you through how Altiris can help your organisation to execute on a full ITAM approach to Desktop Management and then, using Licence Dashboard™, deliver on this new ISO standard. During the briefing Altiris will clearly demonstrate the functional benefits of their discovery tool, and how they can effectively discover all software and hardware assets.

Phoenix's Director for Software Asset Management, Sean Robinson, will provide you with a detailed demonstration of Licence Dashboard and, using examples of recent successful projects, will show you among other things how your inventory tool can be enhanced to deliver clear benefits against your organisation's Software Asset Management objectives.
