Flexera One's compliance tracking is excellent, although sometimes it does not provide the exact report due to the customer's environment, which can be improved. Otherwise, the compliance part is good, especially during the harvesting of the products and software, and the compliance metrics offer a good summary. From my perspective, I would rate Flexera One an eight. If asked whether I would recommend ServiceNow instead of Flexera One, I would not, because as a user who creates reports and provides compliance reports, I find ServiceNow more complex and less user-friendly. The lack of clear information and the improper identification of queues make it fall short compared to Flexera One, which I would rate around five or six in comparison.

I have used it at multiple companies. Primarily, we use the tool to ensure that we're compliant with all the vendors. The particular company I’m working for now is just for IBM. There are other team members who handle other manufacturers. Flexera One is great. It helps us keep an eye on our compliance. When we're audited, Flexera One's reports have been approved by IBM. We don't have to use ILMT, so it's been very helpful.

During my tenure from 2018 to 2022 with Intel, my primary client was a global network with a significant presence in Europe, particularly Germany. I provided services using Flexera's FlexNet Manager, focusing on software asset management for them. From 2021 to 2023, while working with Process Inc., I continued to offer SAM services, utilizing Flexera's solutions, this time for VMware CRX.

I have a love-hate relationship with this solution. There are things I absolutely love about it and things that I would change if it were in my control. But, it's reliable for our needs and It's best in class. We did a POC on another product and that’s when I realized how good I had it with FlexNet when we compared it to Eracent.

* Multiple OSs * The global presence of 25K servers and 100K desktops and laptops * Managing the giant publishers like Microsoft/Adobe/SAP/VMware was a nightmare. * Reporting the asset information and the current spend is also very difficult for my team with our homegrown discovery tools.
Flexera manages and optimizes enterprise software regardless of location, from the desktop to the datacenter to the cloud. We give mid-size enterprises a growth path and a roadmap for success.

I mainly use it for software asset management. It was in the cloud initially, but my latest one is going to be private.
