Microsoft SAM Program
The Microsoft SAM Program provides a process guide for companies starting or already on the route to implementing software asset management initiatives. The program was designed around feedback from organisations already engaged with SAM work, but in need of a simplified and more pragmatic approach to deal with their licensing agreements. In addition, by enrolling on the Microsoft SAM Program, companies reduce the risk of using unlicensed or counterfeit software and can better manage their growing software assets.
How Microsoft SAM Program works
The Microsoft SAM program supports and rewards customers that work with an accredited Microsoft SAM partner such as Jcom. Jcom's SAM specialists have extensive experience in assisting clients through the program registration process and the actions that follow up the enrollment. We provide not only confidential and independent advice during the process, but also perform audits and license reconciliation.
