What differentiates USU Software Asset Management from other similar products?

USU Software Asset Management stands out for its deep license compliance capabilities, especially with complex enterprise agreements like Microsoft, Oracle, and SAP. Its strong software recognition library, customizable reporting, and integration with both on-premise and cloud environments make it a powerful choice for organizations with diverse and large-scale IT landscapes. Compared to other tools, USU offers more granularity and audit readiness, making it ideal for companies focused on risk reduction and cost optimization.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

My favorite aspect of USU Software Asset Management is its robust license compliance and optimization capabilities. It provides clear visibility into software usage, entitlements, and compliance status, which helps reduce audit risks and uncover cost-saving opportunities. The system is especially effective for managing complex vendor agreements and high-stakes audits.

What do you dislike most about this product?

The aspect I dislike most about USU Software Asset Management is its steep learning curve and somewhat dated user interface. While the functionality is strong, new users may find it challenging to navigate initially, and certain tasks can feel unintuitive without training. Improving usability and streamlining workflows would make the platform even more effective.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

Take the time to invest in proper training and stakeholder alignment before implementation. USU Software Asset Management is a powerful platform, but to get the most value, it's important to clearly define your license management goals and ensure integration with your existing IT systems. Also, engage with USU’s support team early—they’re knowledgeable and can help tailor the solution to your needs.
