Investment in IT Asset Management Easily Justified – SAManage White Paper Shows

Compelling ROI derived from reduced IT costs, improved employee productivity, and minimized risk of license infringement fines

SEATTLE, WA, September 3, 2008 -- SAManage, a leading provider of on-demand (SaaS) IT Management services, today released a new white paper providing a straightforward methodology and highly usable framework for evaluating the return on investment in an IT Asset Management solution.

IT Asset Management ("ITAM") is a combination of processes and technologies that provides organizations with a greater understanding of what IT assets exist, where these assets are located, and how they are being used.  With these capabilities, ITAM enables organizations to more effectively manage IT assets throughout their lifecycle, simplify maintenance and administrative tasks, and ensure that every piece of hardware and software is fully utilized. 

Titled "Making the Business Case for IT Asset Management," the white paper can be used by IT departments to easily calculate the ROI for IT asset management.  Based on industry benchmark data, the paper provides easy-to-follow formulas that can be quickly modified to the specific circumstances of each organization.  Armed with this information, IT managers can clearly spell out the quantifiable benefits of an ITAM solution when presenting the case to senior management in order to secure budgetary approval.

The white paper is provided courtesy of SAManage, a leading provider of on-demand (SaaS) IT Management services.  Available at no charge as a service to IT departments, it can be downloaded here.
