Case Study: Panasonic Information Systems Company Europe achieves software savings and compliance efficiencies with Flexera

Panasonic Information Systems Company Europe saves $100,000 in Microsoft license costs with Flexera

Panasonic Information Systems Company Europe (PISCEU), which provides IT services for the Panasonic Europe Group, faced significant software asset management challenges. Its decentralized structure led to manual processes and a lack of visibility, resulting in high fees from a software audit. The company needed a centralized solution to ensure compliance, reduce costs, and manage both on-premises and cloud subscriptions.

Flexera implemented its Snow SAM solution, which provided comprehensive visibility into software usage, including in-browser applications, without compromising data privacy. This enabled PISCEU to offer SAM as a service to its business units. The results included the recovery of 450 unused Microsoft Office licenses, leading to potential savings of $100,000, and the establishment of new vendor agreements that provided significant procurement discounts and greater license flexibility.
