Headquartered in Valley of the Sun near Phoenix, Arizona, Software ID Technologies is a professional services firm, and an industry leader in helping companies, governments, non-profits, and educational institutions to identify ALL of their software assets. Using our proprietary software, database, and/or services as an adjunct to your Software Asset Management (SAM) program we help your organization implement a total software asset management strategy that identifies ALL the publishers, add/remove programs (ARP) and executable (EXE) files on your systems and servers.

Our software and/or our highly trained consultants operate as adjuncts to your staff to fill in the gaps between the software your discovery tool identifies and the additional programs that require your company to expend significant effort and time to identify. This allows our clients to identify as much as 95% of the software applications in their environments for as little as 17% of the cost of traditional methods.

Because most SAM discovery tools only identify 20-50% of the software on your network, your company could be at risk for:

• A software audit that can result in large fines and business interruption.
• Hidden software that can allow access into a company's information by outside third parties and hackers
• Overhead and productivity drains from employee installed applications like iTunes or games.
• Non-compliance with government regulations like Sarbanes Oxley, HIPAA, and the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (GLBA).
• Copyright violations
• Costs associated with software no longer needed because of downsizing or personnel changes.
• Costly issues incurred during operating system migrations.
• Delays in merger/acquisition due diligence tasks.

These issues affect all levels of management, including CIOs, CFOs, COOs, compliance officers, and IT managers and staff. When budget dollars are tight,it may seem easier to just ignore the issue, but implementing a total software asset management solution that identifies 100% of your assets will save you money, put you in 100% compliance, and be an investment with a high ROI.

What you don't know can pose serious financial, compliance, and security risks to your company's future, so contact Software ID Technologies today to attend one of our free webinars or to find out more about our services.
