'True-up' Cost Forecasting
 & License Harvesting

It's one thing to determine what your current 'over-deployment ' costs are,
but what about forecasting future over-deployment costs?

AssetCheck does both.

AssetCheck is the only SAM solution that can forecast your 'True-up' cost  - up to 4 quarters in the future - for your Microsoft products (as well as any other software vendor).

Since it takes AssetCheck mere minutes to normalize your inventory data, you can reconcile your data each and every week.

Here's how it's done:

With each additional inventory, statistical trends emerge; you start to see various 'growth' rates from each of your productlines.

ProductLine growth rates (recall: ProductLines are the collection of all versions of a product!) are used to create a 'trajectory'.

Each productLine trajectory is projected forward in time to intercept the contract renewal data and the 'projected' count on that date is calculated.

A bit of statistical analysis
(the type of math that most of us want to gladly forget)
 is AssetCheck's approach to True-up Forecasting
