1E ShoppingTM and AppClarity work together to provide self-service software provisioning and complete license visibility and control. Users are more likely to return unused software licenses if they know they can easily regain the applications in the future through a corporate app store.

IdentifysoftwarewasteIntegrates with Microsoft Configuration Manager to quickly identify the software installed on every PC in your organization and when it was last used. Highlights unused software, ‘shelfware’ and redundant applications (different applications installed on the same machine that do the same job) to provide an accurate and in-depth picture of software deployment across your enterprise.
