Announcing the new Support CSC (Customer Service Center) - view the video

From the Support Center, you have a direct link into the Tech Support Help Desk. This means that from the product, you can open up support tickets, view the status of your current tickets, update and attach logs, etc. to existing tickets, 24x7 from a Web browser.

Login to Systems Manager, click the "Go To Support" icon, then "Still need help?" Launching the CSC from here will automatically create a user account for you in our database and take you directly into our Help Desk, where you can create, review, and update your tickets. Once we have resolved your issue, you will receive a satisfaction survey so you can let us know how we're doing. Our goal is to continue to improve our processes and services, and increase your visibility into what we're working on.

Monthly Featured - Right-sizing Software Licensing - view the video

In working with some of our customers, we have been able to find tens of thousands in savings in "right-sizing" their license compliance. Software compliance is much more than just buying enough licenses to cover what's installed. Gartner states that companies are overbuying on 60% of their software, while being out of compliance on 30%! Our software usage reports help you determine not only where you are out of compliance, but of the software installed, what is actually being used. This helps in license "right-sizing" (buying what's needed). Click here to view a two-minute video on software usage.
