FlexNet Manager for Engineering Applications

FlexNet Manager from Flexera Software centralizes software license management to help organizations optimize software use and spending by 30% or more, simplify license administration, reduce denials and more easily demonstrate compliance with vendor license agreements.

• Buy only the software you really need - retire licenses and support plans that are no longer used
• Conduct fact-based negotiations and use the buying power of the entire enterprise
• Identify underutilized licenses and remix them or reallocate them to other countries or projects
• More accurately forecast future needs

Without insight into software usage, companies routinely overspend and buy licenses they never use, or under spend and deny end users access to software they need. Too often, other tools and methods provide reports that offer no overall view across the enterprise, little insight into trends, and no link to contracts, organization structure or costs. In order to make decisions, you’re left with countless time-consuming, manual steps.

With 25 years of experience as the producers of FlexNet, a leading licensing technology embedded in over 20,000 applications, Flexera Software is uniquely capable of helping organizations monitor, manage and report on the use of major engineering applications using FlexNet Manager.

Specializing in Electronic Design Automation (EDA), Geographic Information Systems (GIS), Exploration & Production (E&P) and Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) applications, this solution also offers a way to analyze usage and denial trends in relation to license terms, costs and organization, like geography, cost center, project, or user.

With everything brought together for you, it’s easy to identify opportunities to minimize costs, increase utilization and productivity, and address license compliance issues.
