JTB FlexReport is a report tool for applications using the FLEXnet / FLEXlm (flexlm
license manager), IBM LUM (IBM License Use Management) or 12D software
licensing. Do you want to optimize your software purchases tomorrow? JTB
FlexReport is an inexpensive solution that will help you. By the tracking JTB
FlexReport does and the graphic reports that can be produced JTB FlexReport will
helps you to manage and forecast license usage at your company.
JTB FlexReport will help you to see the license usage over the time and help
to justify new purchases. This will help you to decide when and how many
licenses you will need to purchase next time. Instead of guessing and purchasing
more licenses than you really need you can save your money using JTB FlexReport.
Data is also logged to a database so you can track the usage per user
as well as work with groups of users. Great if you need help to split license
costs.
Email notifications when usage is exceeding a specified level.
Lets say you have 10 licenses of your software that costs $3,000 each. Now you
have 20 users that shares these licenses. Do you know if you really need these
10 licenses or if you need more now when 2 more users are coming in? If you have
JTB FlexReport it will be easier to make a correct decision. If you just need to
purchase 1 less license imagine your benefit of using JTB FlexReport.
