One page provides all the relevant information: how many current licences have been purchased, how many of those have been utilised, and when they expire. So if another manager says that they need a lot more licences for an application that is heavily underutilized, that data is easily validated and the business doesn\u2019t waste money on software they don\u2019t need. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span lang=\"EN\">\u00a0<\/span><span lang=\"EN\">As well as assisting with high-level strategic decisions, day-to-day IT administration of endpoint policies is made much more straightforward with the right data instantly accessible. For example, having set software to update according to a pre-defined maintenance schedule, it\u2019s easy to keep on top of how that\u2019s progressing with a filterable, drillable report.\u00a0 <\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.faronics.com\/en-uk\/news\/blog\/how-are-it-managers-making-all-those-superb-decisions\/screenshot-2021-06-04-at-08-35-44\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-235021\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.faronics.com\/assets\/Screenshot-2021-06-04-at-08.35.44.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"730\" height=\"455\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-235021\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><span lang=\"EN\">As regards security, one of the critical components of the IT manager\u2019s job description, live dashboards make life a lot easier than it used to be.
