As you will see when drilling into individual devices, we synchronize the list of applications on each device (except for personal devices). We bring this information together under “Discovered Apps” allowing you to have a comprehensive view of the apps installed across your device estate, including versioning information and critically the spread of different versions installed allowing you to find devices running old versions of apps which maybe insecure.
Drill into an application to see the devices on which it is installed and to home in on where older versions are installed
On top of this we layer:
Software Metering - the ability to see when a license was last used, how many times it has been used in a 30 day window and how many minutes it has been used for. This data is vital in reclaiming unused licenses and to increase security posture by removing unused apps that could easily become unpatched.
License Count Metering – the ability to check you have not got more installations than licenses. This information allows you to stay within your EULAs with software vendors that you rely on.
License Count Metering
When drilled into an application, click the App Metering button, slide "Enable App Metering" to on and set the quantity of licenses installed along with thresholds for amber and red, which when set we will compare the total number of installations and highlight where there are more installations than the license limits set
When you click Save you will see a percentage bar at the top of the screen showing you your license count vs installs
Software Metering
Software metering is covered under a separate article as it is a little more involved than License Count Metering. Learn more.
