Fewer tools, less risk, real savings
Estates accumulate. Four tools end up doing one job, end-of-life software lingers, and consumer apps creep in. LICENSEWARE recognizes every install, exposes functional overlap, and gives you a prioritized plan to standardize on one incumbent per capability.
The problem
Tool sprawl is expensive, and most of it is invisible
Every team adopts the software that solves its immediate problem, and almost no one retires what it replaced. Without a single source of truth, rationalization stalls before it starts.
Tool sprawl
One analytics function spread across Power BI, Tableau, Qlik, Alteryx, and SAS. Four tools, one job, none retired.
End-of-life & shadow IT
Unsupported software lingers and consumer-grade apps creep in, widening the security and compliance surface.
No single truth
The same asset shows up under different names across discovery, ITSM, and procurement, so nobody can say what's running.
How it works
From fragmented data to a consolidation plan
Merge every source into one truth. Recognize and categorize what's there. Act on a prioritized plan.
Map, compare, and merge multiple datasets into one record, establishing truth, variance, and data completeness across the estate.
Every install is matched, enriched, and grouped by business capability so functional overlap, redundancy, and end-of-life software become visible.
NEO delivers a rationalization report that names the incumbent per capability and the redundant tools to retire, prioritized by value.
The apps that do the work
One truth, then a plan to act on it
Rationalization fails without clean data. GREG establishes the single source of truth, SIM turns it into recognized, categorized inventory, and the overlap and hygiene picture follows.
Software Inventory Manager
Recognizes, enriches, and categorizes software to identify functional overlap and manage the lifecycle. The source data behind the Software Rationalization & Hygiene report: redundancies, EOL software, unmanaged installs, and consolidation opportunities.
Golden Records Generator
Automatically maps, compares, and merges multiple datasets to establish truth, variance, and completeness. The de-duplication layer that makes a defensible rationalization possible when assets appear differently across every source.

What you get
A leaner, cleaner, lower-risk estate
The numbers below come from a sample NEO rationalization report. Yours are generated on your own data.
412
Redundant applications
Non-incumbent installs across 64 fragmented categories, flagged as candidates for removal under the Rule of One.
$480K+
Addressable spend
Estimated annual saving if 80% of redundant workloads are consolidated onto the incumbent platform.
1
Incumbent per capability
A clear standardization target for every function, with EOL and shadow IT surfaced for removal along the way.
