Søren Tøpholm - PeerSpot reviewer
It is very easy to use, maintain and deploy
There are situations all the time in my company where the Snow License Manager effectively identifies over-licensing of software, leading to cost savings. It is an effective solution. In Snow License Manager, the most beneficial feature for maintaining compliance revolves around the area of compliance overview. With the product, my company is able to manage all sources of reports on our organization's environment. The reporting analytics feature has aided in our company's decision-making processes. The automated discovery feature in the tool is very good. In my company, I don't know how I would manage if the tool was not available to help me with asset management. The product is easy to maintain. Snow License Manager supports business in contract negotiations by basically giving us all the data to clarify our company's position. I recommend the solution to others. It is very easy to use, maintain, and deploy. I rate the tool an eight out of ten.
NR
Plenty of features, stable, and scalable
The solution has not been updated in a while and parts appear to be outdated, such as the pictures. It is a reactive product in terms of development and features. They do not follow the market trends or have many innovations. I have found Symantec Asset Management Suite does not integrate well with Microsoft solutions, which in the corporate world is a large disadvantage. They are currently lagging behind Microsoft. The cloud version of this solution is not very convenient or comparable to other solutions, they need to improve it.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The discovery is excellent. It is agent-based, and it can also operate without one as long as there is an inventory source, such as SCCM. It may take data from the SCCM and normalize it to provide a very clear idea of what the hardware is, what software is running on it, what versions of that software are available, when is the end-of-life, and when they are no longer supported. All of that information is available."
"The product's initial setup phase is very easy."
"Symantec Asset Management Suite has better features than some of its competitors, such as the Microsoft Configuration Manager."
 

Cons

"The support is an area that can be improved. As resellers, we are doing the first-level support because we have trained certified engineers, and we provide support. Because we are in India and they do not have a support center in India, the turnaround time for tickets could be improved. We have to rely on Australia for support."
"The dashboards provided by the solution have certain shortcomings, making it in areas where improvements are required."
"The solution has not been updated in a while and parts appear to be outdated, such as the pictures. It is a reactive product in terms of development and features. They do not follow the market trends or have many innovations."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I would rate the pricing a seven or eight out of ten. It is not a cheap solution, but it provides good value for money."
"I rate the product price as a four on a scale of one to ten, where one is low, and ten is high."
"The price of the solution was reasonable a couple of years ago but now it is expensive."
