Peregrine Systems® Webcast to Explore Ways to Ensure Compliance and Optimize Software and Hardware Costs
New Enterprise Discovery 2 Suite to Be Demoed
SAN DIEGO, July 18 -- Peregrine Systems®, Inc. , a leading provider of IT asset and service management software, will host a live webcast that explores how to optimize IT asset costs on Tuesday, July 19 at noon ET/9 a.m. PT. Featured in the webcast is a demonstration of Enterprise Discovery 2, Peregrine's new application suite that enables IT to automatically discover, inventory and better use all hardware, software and network devices.
Matt Schvimmer, director of product marketing, and Todd Bashor, an asset management expert and member of Peregrine's product enablement team, will host the event and lead the product demonstration. Attendees will learn how to:
o Establish the foundation and ongoing management of an effective CMDB
o Reduce compliance risk by identifying all deployed software
o Optimize software licenses and chargebacks based on actual utilization information
"While many products can collect raw data about various network assets, Enterprise Discovery 2 is unique in its ability to centralize this process across the enterprise, associate the data in a way that is meaningful to IT operational processes and provide closed-loop validation that's required for managing a CMDB," said Craig Macdonald, vice president of product marketing and product management at Peregrine.
Enterprise Discovery 2 -- which is a core set of applications in Peregrine's Asset Tracking, Expense Control and Service Establishment solutions -- supports customers who are seeking to standardize and consolidate discovery and inventory of IT assets, including software asset management initiatives. The product suite identifies and inventories more than 15,000 software titles, as well as supplying detailed software utilization information. Three interconnecting products, which include Device Discovery, Inventory and Software Utilization, deliver information critical to improving hardware and software use, reducing asset costs and improving IT labor efficiencies.
