SAM managed services from Aspera are designed around each customer's needs and offered at three levels of engagement.

- Baseline Compliance Position. This fast approach to license compliance is a point-in-time assessment of a vendor's baseline position. The "Rapid Vendor Analysis" is a solid snapshot for vendor negotiation or a true-up that's pending.

- Effective License Positions. With ELP services, Aspera can ensure a clear picture of a company's software entitlements vs. deployments and usage, for a position of strength from an audit and contract renewal perspective.

- License Management as a Service. This full-partner approach unites Aspera tools and services into one customizable solution. Aspera manages a company's SAM program with "LaaS" as an extension of their team.

"Vendor is proactive and always ready to support. Vendor proposes suitable solutions and guides the design and implementation process end-to-end."
