Snow Atlas: Software Asset Management for time-constrained teams

Snow Atlas enables organizations to easily gain control over growing software budgets—but don’t let that ease-of-use fool you.

Drive positive business outcomes quickly

Audit defense

Be audit-ready to avoid unexpected costs

Software vendor audits can drag your team down with time-consuming requests and result in unexpected true-up costs. Snow Atlas keeps you audit-ready all the time. Get real-time visibility into your compliance position to know when you have over-assigned licenses. Leverage usage data to continually recapture underused licenses and stay compliant. In case of an audit, quickly access reports to confidently communicate your effective license position (ELP). 

Cost containment

Contain spiraling software costs

Stop paying for more than you need by comparing your paid licenses to actual usage and make informed decisions to optimize your spend. Get the data you need to eliminate unused software, downgrade premium tiers, reallocate licenses and get the best renewal deal. Plus, avoid costly duplication by leveraging your existing bring your own license (BYOL) entitlements for SQL Server and Windows Server licenses in Azure, ensuring you get the best possible renewal terms. Snow Atlas lets you avoid overspending and regain control of your software budget.  

Application rationalization

Reduce software sprawl

With automatic normalization, categorization and enrichment of more than 800,000 applications, Snow Atlas provides a complete picture of your software portfolio. Quickly identify overlapping technologies used across your organization, access usage data to determine which redundant applications to eliminate, and identify which applications are your enterprise standards—all resulting in better negotiating leverage. 

Improve accuracy 

Automate entitlement importing, app normalization and enrichment

Reduce manual steps and improve accuracy with AI-based invoice, purchase order (PO) and quote ingestion. Leverage REST write APIs to programmatically update asset metadata and apply custom business rules in real time. Save time reconciling inventory with our AI-based Data Intelligence Service, which normalizes and enriches your inventory from a catalog of over 800,000 applications.  

Data extensibility

Export Snow Atlas data via API and pre-built connectors

When you use Snow Atlas APIs, the normalized and enriched IT asset data can be leveraged across your organization to improve outcomes beyond audit defense and renewal negotiations. With our certified connector to ServiceNow, as well as other IT service management (ITSM) platforms, you can leverage this clean dataset to save time troubleshooting and reduce mean time to repair (MTTR). 

Fast time-to-value

Find savings within 30 days

You can't afford to wait for results. Even small teams can find savings quickly with Snow Atlas. Uncover opportunities to optimize usage and go into your next renewal prepared to get the best deal. Share insights with stakeholders across your organization so the entire enterprise can drive positive outcomes—everything from identifying cost savings to risk reduction. 

Thanks to Snow Atlas, we will be able to reduce our Adobe footprint and costs by 15%, and our spend with Microsoft by 12%, when we come to renew licenses.
