28 April 2008 - activAeon’s License Efficiency Programme (“LEP”) now geared for the desktop SPLA market.

Additional activAeon support for the Enterprise , SMB and consumer markets.

NEWCASTLE, United Kingdom — April. 28, 2008 - activAeon Ltd today announces the launch of their latest offering increasing the software’s capabilities to further support the enterprise, SMB or consumer markets.

“Many companies are increasingly aware that SaaS solutions can be an effective way of controlling application expenditure. One of the challenges in adopting a SaaS solution into the Enterprise is gathering accurate data with which to make efficiencies.” said Peter Johnson , CEO of activAeon Ltd.

He went on to say that “without the knowledge of exactly what has been used within the enterprise, companies can spend excessive amounts of capital on application license cycles.” Johnson continues “activAeon and the LEP program now allows desktop as well as server application usage to be accurately tracked, collated and monitored. This data can be crucial in determining future license and “true up” negotiations with ISV’s. activAeon shows what has actually been used, not just what's installed on the PC or server”

“As more and more companies move towards a true SaaS model for applications, activAeon’s programs and technology will be a necessity for monitoring application usage” said Andy Bowman , Chief Product Officer at activAeon Ltd.

activAeon now allows PC based customers to be absolutely accurate in determining returns to ISV's such as Microsoft, for inter- departmental billing and in particular for understanding application usage across the environment. “We have worked extensively in the Microsoft SPLA arena for over three years now and have developed world class technology and processes to support Hosters, we are firmly committed to taking our expertise into the desktop market. activAeon’s technology and processes can have a substantial positive financial outcome for the enterprise customer”

As more and more SaaS based offerings arrive into the market, opportunities increase for Hosters, ISP’s and Software resellers to expand their reach. activAeon can provide support for reporting and billing across any environment with this increase in functionality and expertise enabling a true cost effective SaaS proposition.
