Highly customizable product but has out-of-date usability

Pros

"This product can be customized according to the needs of any company."

Cons

"The usability of this product is still out-of-date and could be improved. The interface could be improved."

What is our primary use case?

We use Micro Focus Asset Manager for tracking the whole life cycle of IT assets. To some extent, we also track software asset management, e.g. the usage of our software products, so we reduce or procure products in Asset Manager.

We also combine data from different systems about the usage of the software products and now build reports. We are focused on tracking and inventorying IT hardware assets, material assets, including software assets.

What is most valuable?

The feature that I found most valuable in this product is that it is customizable. It could be heavily customized according to the needs of any company. This is one of the real strengths of this product.

We have now automatic and immediate control of assets usage and we can now better manage our assets pool.

Pros

"We have now automatic and immediate control of assets usage, and we can now better manage our assets pool and get benefits through that."

Cons

"The technology used is outdated, the interface is outdated, the database is outdated, everything is outdated. "

We implemented software asset management on top of the asset manager. It was my goal when we selected the product and actually we're looking forward to developing those features in the future.

How has it helped my organization?

Actually we have now automatic and immediate control of assets usage, and we can now better manage our assets pool and get benefits through that.

We use it to ensure software compliance and it is flexible. Technical support is frustrating.

What is most valuable?

The most important features are the flexibility of the product and the way that we can use it to ensure software compliance within our organization.

How has it helped my organization?

We use a lot of software in the organization. In order to track it, we use Universal Discovery, which feeds into Asset Manager, to give us our install base. We load all of our licenses against it so that we understand what we're entitled to use. The compliance counters in Asset Manager enable us to ensure that we’re compliant for software licensing.
