Centralized IT planning is a highly recommended business practice for
today, no matter how challenging. While decentralizing is tempting, it
leads to too many siloes or IT expenses that are unnecessary. ITAM and
IT service management (ITSM) are excellent keys for handling IT assets
and services.
SAM plays an important role in ITAM, ITOM, ITSM, and
SecOps as SAM is in charge of monitoring software assets, usage,
configurations, and installations that help decision-making, even in a
decentralized environment.
