Absolute Helps Enterprises Boost Software ROI, Employee Productivity, and Security with New Software and Web Usage Analytics

▤ Summary

With Absolute’s new Software Inventory and Web Usage analytics, organizations can maximize returns on software investments and find potential cost savings; help ensure employees have the tools they need to work productively and securely from anywhere; and identify potential security vulnerabilities or blind spots arising from unsanctioned, insecure apps or web content. According to a recent report from Spiceworks Ziff Davis, ‘The 2021 State of IT’, the need to enable a remote workforce and send a device home with every employee has found many businesses facing the true cost of software ownership. “With devices staying largely off-network in the new world of remote and hybrid work models, IT departments face multiple challenges when it comes to having a complete picture of what software has been purchased and deployed, whether the apps being used are sanctioned or fully updated, and where they may have gaps in security or productivity,” said Ameer Karim, EVP of Product Management at Absolute. The ability to automate software inventory and web app usage reporting comes with a number of benefits including identifying potential license non-compliance or waste, limiting shadow IT and the use of unsanctioned apps, ensuring tools like web filters are working effectively, and more.” With a firmware-embedded position in more than half a billion endpoints, Absolute enables a permanent digital tether capable of delivering unbreakable visibility and a persistent stream of data whether a device is on or off the corporate network.
