Summary

Open iT LicenseAnalyzer meters and analyzes software usage, helping organizations understand how licenses are used and where they may be optimized. It tracks users, timing, duration, and concurrency, with reports that can be narrowed by application, feature, user, host, department, or session. Its three levels—Runtime Usage, True Active Usage, and Managed Usage—range from reporting to activity analysis and automated license controls. True Active Usage can use CPU, I/O, keyboard, and mouse signals to distinguish active from inactive use; Managed Usage can harvest licenses and suspend or resume sessions under policies and priorities. LicenseAnalyzer supports more than 100 license managers and lists on-premises, cloud, and hybrid deployment options. It can model several licensing approaches without infrastructure changes, and usage breakdowns can support chargeback. The product is paid, with pricing available on request, and a free trial link is offered. The Fast-Track Cloud Trial is limited to Level 1 evaluation using FlexNet license data and FlexNet servers.
