Hi, I have a question about Adoption Tracker please. Is this a separate software component that must be installed, or is it built into the latest SLM? I cannot find a lot of technical documentation explaining how it can be installed or used. Thanks

Hi Dewald

No it isn't a separate component... Actually, adoption tracker is essentially SLM with the license compliance side removed... it will show you what hardware and software is in your estate, but you won't be able to track compliance without spend auditor. At the minute there isn't a real paywall feature within the product to really make it easy to understand - currently it's more about a license rather than having a product which actually limits the functionality. However, I'd anticipate that this will change in the near future and we will start to see the agreements/license menu items removed from SLM if you only purchase adoption tracker.

The Snow Academy has quite a lot of good material on all this...

Thanks
