How do you keep track of licenses?
-
I've seen a lot of places just throw all their licensed media in a box and shuffle it like a bingo drum XD
-
Most of our stuff is FlexLM.

Anyone used Snipe-IT? Saw @scottalanmiller install tutorial and it seems interesting.

No but we are thinking about using it.

I set it up also but have not really started using it.

seems interesting ... will try it out for sure ..
btw .. did you manage to get the single-line installer script working ?

We use SpiceWorks.

We use Mike. He sits like 10 feet from me and does most of our licensing.

I use snipe .......... well did until I delete the wrong VM! lucky there wasn't much on there so I can rebuild slowly.

See my other thread from Yesterday
But Snipe did seem a good solution for Asset tracking along with Licenses.

Curious as what license management/tracking software others use.
Snipe-IT (https://snipeitapp.com/)
Open source, can run on Linux, easy installer. You basically create a license and check that out either
- to an asset (Windows or SQL Server Server licenses for example) or
- to a user (I'm using that for CALs and user bound non-MS licenses)
There are some minor flaws, but it's in active development.

I'm slowing switching everything over to snipe-it. How about 200 assets and 100 licenses in it so far. Much happier then the previous method.
