Group Usage- Software asset visibility by department

Every department within an organization uses applications. When users and groups are integrated into the software license management system via Directory Sync, OpenLM can interface with a company’s directory service and synchronize with its Organizational Units (OUs) and users’ workgroups. The Group Usage feature supplies administrators with information about which department uses which application and for how long.

Enable software chargeback for your organization.
The OpenLM Group Usage feature enables chargeback of license usage to cost centers based on groups and improves license acquisition, maintenance, and allocation planning.

OpenLM allows system admins to add their users and groups in multiple ways:
manually,
by uploading a CSV file,
using the Options file,
Reading the license output
By synchronizing the OpenLM database with the organization’s central directory.
