Certero Launches New Product
30th October 2008
Certero has launched a new product named Software Metering for Decision Makers™. John Lunt (Managing Director) said "This is another significant milestone for Certero. AssetStudio™ is our core product covering the lifecycle of IT Asset Management. This enables our customers to manage their assets in an automated, efficient manner. It is one thing to be able to state that you are managing your organisations assets; it is another to be able to state that you are getting maximum value from those same assets. With our exciting new product Software Metering for Decision Makers™ organisations will now be able to demonstrate that their organisations assets are being fully utilised and that their software portfolio is optimised.
With Software Metering for Decision Makers™ Certero have filled a gap in the market that enables organisations to identify waste in the form of underutilised software and duplication of products. With this information at their fingertips, organisations can drive through strategic initiatives that can immediately contribute to their bottom line, whereas previously, emotional blockers may have delayed or prevented such forward thinking. The feedback to date from our customers has been excellent and has validated our expectations for this product. Given that Software Metering for Decision Makers™ is a standalone product, it can add value to all organisations regardless of their IT Asset Management product. With the current downturn in the economy, organisations will need to look internally for efficiencies; Software Metering for Decision Makers™ will be a key product in enabling this to be done in areas that would not have been possible before".
Howard Williams, Product Director, said "The product addresses the need to understand what software is being used. It is not a big brother approach, it focuses on the fact that a software product has or has not been used. With the powerful graphical user interface it is easy to obtain answers to questions that would have been impossible to answer previously. The data to support the graphs is comprehensive both at device and user level thus enabling factual business conversations to take place. We have maintained the common look and feel of AssetStudio™ as well as maintaining the same usability techniques to ensure that training is kept to a minimum. This is core to our products being simple to use, removing the need for expensive 'experts' and powerful in their output. We are pleased that we have been able to continue this with Software Metering for Decision Makers™".
