German Car Manufacturer Cuts Global Licensing Costs with Aspera

German Car Manufacturing Company, headquartered in Munich with operations worldwide, wanted to cut software licensing costs without reducing staff. Aspera Technologies helped the company tackle the challenge of centralizing and consolidating global license data, improving compliance, and identifying opportunities to reduce software spend using Aspera SmartTrack and related license management services.

Aspera Technologies implemented SmartTrack, supported by the Master Catalog, managed services, and consulting, to bring together license and installation data from multiple countries and systems. Within six months, the company gained full visibility into its software assets, achieved compliance for more than 2,000 of its 7,000 software products, and uncovered savings through reduced support, maintenance, and duplicate licensing costs.
