Service Integration and Management (SIAM) and Multi-Sourcing Service Integration (MSI) functionality is embedded within the core content of Cherwell Service Management software.

The Cherwell CMDB provides a trusted view of the infrastructure environment, improving the quality of IT services and applications and reducing unplanned downtime and infrastructure total cost of ownership.
Key ITSM Capabilities & Features
Comprehensive Hardware and Software Inventory
Take the guesswork out of what’s installed across your network with Cherwell’s IT Asset Managment software with powerful IT asset discovery and inventory reporting. Our Express Software Manager automatically discovers all the hardware and software installed on your Windows- and Mac OS-based desktops, laptops, and servers, and reconciles discovered applications and devices with purchasing details—so you know what’s installed, who’s using it, and whether it’s properly licensed.
World-Class License Compliance Management
53% of organizations experienced a software audit within the last two years, with true-up costs and penalties averaging $525,000 among those found to be non-compliant. When it comes to license compliance, you can’t afford to be caught asleep at the wheel. Express Software Manager’s world-class license management capabilities and compliance reporting enable you to monitor your license position in a proactive, automated fashion—so you can correct license deficits before you receive the software audit letter. An IT asset management system doesn’t get any easier.
Detailed Software Usage Analysis
If you suspect unused or underutilized software licenses are costing your organization big money, now you can prove it, with Express Software Manager’s powerful software usage analysis. On average, Cherwell’s IT asset management customers reclaim 15-20% of their annual software budget through re-allocation of licenses, termination of maintenance fees and support costs, and renegotiation of software contracts.
Powerful ITAM Purchasing System
Express Software Manager includes a comprehensive purchasing system that allows you to consolidate IT procurement and licensing information, and reconcile purchasing data with inventoried assets—eliminating spreadsheets once and for all and giving you that critical link between the physical and financial aspects of your IT investments.
Microsoft SCCM Integration
If you’re using Microsoft Systems Center Configuration Manager to manage your hardware and software assets, chances are you’re struggling to get what you need out of its native ITAM reporting capabilities. Express Software Manager enables you to leverage your existing SCCM implementation and transform its raw inventory data into reliable, license-centric reports−with no SQL expertise required.
