Cost efficiency:

Identify and eliminate unnecessary software expenditure by aligning procurement with real usage data.

Strategic planning:

Leverage usage insights to inform smarter deployment and future purchasing strategies.

Risk mitigation:

Ensure compliance with licensing agreements, reducing legal and financial exposure.
