Do you know what's out there? Do all users have the latest Microsoft® Windows security patch installed? Have they installed p2p software that's consuming all of your bandwidth? Answering these questions and completing software audits can be time-consuming and expensive for any business. Paglo helps you address these software asset management challenges quickly and easily and always keeps you up-to-date as things change.

Software_audit_table The Paglo Crawler automatically finds all of the software installed on your computers and servers (without needing to deploy any agents). And you can drill down for all of the relevant details such as vendor names, versions, and installation dates. By taking a snapshot of what is going on at any time you can immediately save money by reallocating your resources. You can identify software licensed to someone who has changed roles (or is no longer with the company) and cut IT costs by canceling the license or reassigning it.

You can also continually monitor your software assets via the Paglo dashboard and set alerts to notify you when something changes. By reporting on what is happening, you can address growing compliance concerns by minimizing risk associated with piracy, and illegal use of software. By remaining accurate and up-to-date on the software installed on your network, you protect yourself from the risks associated with vulnerable software installed on your network.

Paglo allows you to track your organization's software and tells you what you've got, where you've got it, and what's changed. You then have the knowledge to determine if anything needs to be done with it.
