Cloud Software License Tracking - Not installed on endpoints

Hello -

We are looking to keep track of licensing for our SaaS products by user and count.

For example...

We currently use Snipe-it to track what licenses are assigned to what user.

5 Licenses for Adobe Pro Cloud
-User1
-User2
-User3
All 3 Users are assigned a license

5 Licenses for PlanGrid
-User 3
-User 4
-User 5

Would we be able to keep track of who is assigned those licenses in SysAid?
- Could we look up User 3 and see that they have a license for Adobe Pro and PlanGrid
- Look up User 2 and see they are only assigned Adobe Pro.
- Then organize it so we can look up PlanGrid and see that User 3, 4, and 5 are assigned a
license
- Also have it keep track of license counts when we add/remove users.

Hope this makes sense!

Hi MitchellF,
There is an FR #51542 for that in our system, I added a reference to this thread to the existing record for this Feature Request in our internal system so you can receive updates once in delivery pipeline.

In the case the applications are installed locally on your users computers for which you want to manage licenses you can install agent and follow the below guide to get the data consolidated for review:

Hello. I would like to say that the Andersen’s Research Group has developed a new software license tracking tool that will help organizations track their software licenses in the cloud. The tool is designed to work with any licensing system and will help organizations save time and money. To learn more about this tool and get started with it, visit Andersen's website.
