We've been told that by BMC and independent consultants as well, but I am leery of being on the bleeding edge of technology with this, especially since our users are just getting used to using Asset Management 7 for hardware.
I do think that the lack of many other people responding to my post does answer my question well though. If using Asset Management to track software licenses was common, I would have received more responses. We are going to look at 7.5, but this does make me question whether or not it would be better to develop a custom application for now, and maybe go to 7.5 in a year or two.

I'd recommend you take a look at it to see if you need to upgrade to Asset Mgmt 7.5 instead of developing any customizations that you may need. -Guillaume -----Original Message----- From: Action Request System discussion list(ARSList) on behalf of Pierson, Shawn Sent: Mon 03/09/09 3:25 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Asset Management for tracking Software Licenses Good afternoon, We're currently looking at using Asset management 7 to track software and licenses. In the process of figuring out how to use Asset Management for this, we've not been able to find any other companies that are actually using the Licensing module. Do any of you use it? If so, how do you use it and does it serve your company's needs well?
