Centralised IT planning is a highly recommended business practice for today, no matter how challenging. While decentralising 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 decentralised environment.
