Compliance reporting
Gain confidence with compliance reporting
Flexera One provides on-demand IBM license compliance reporting, including peak and current consumption, Cloud Pak VPCs, IBM product bundling, RedHat and Containers to meet reporting requirements.
Direct integrations
Minimize license requirements
Flexera One’s extensive coverage of IBM product use rights, complex metrics, PVU point tables and integration with IBM License Service (ILS), along with being the only IBM License Metric Tool alternative ensures you have everything you need in one simplified view. Optimize your IBM environment to the maximum.
Our choice for this tool was based upon our need for IBM reporting. Using another tool would have required us to continue with a separate tool for IBM reporting for sub-capacity licensing requirements. We are currently in the process of getting the tool configured and information transferred over. Based on the initial usage of the tool, we are very satisfied with its overall performance.
Frequently asked questions
Flexera One Select for IBM is a unique offering that allows customers to purchase a lightweight version of our Flexera One ITAM solution to provide SAM insights solely to your IBM estate.
IT asset management (ITAM) software is a program designed to record and track the lifecycle of all IT assets in an organization.
IT asset management solutions enable the monitoring, tracking and management of who and what is in your IT infrastructure. This allows you to understand what components are accessible to whom and adjust manager control wherever necessary.
An ITAM system can also grasp end-of-life and end-of-service intrusion points of your assets, which can help you keep your IT estate up-to-date and ready to combat any issues.
While similar, ITAM and configuration management database (CMDB) differ in purpose and goals. ITAM intends to provide an overview of IT assets, particularly concerning their lifecycle, to minimize security risks, reduce costs, maximize the business value of technology and make IT-related decisions easier.
A CMDB, on the other hand, is a centralized repository (like a filing system) used to store all the data of an IT environment. It allows organizations to monitor, track and manage all IT assets in one place.
