REPRISE SOFTWARE, INC. ANNOUNCES SUPPORT FOR RLM REPORT LOG IN FREE LIMITED EDITION LICENSE TRACKER USAGE REPORTING TOOL
 

San Jose, CA – August 26, 2008 – Reprise Software is pleased to announce the availability of a free license usage reporting tool for Reprise licensees and their end users. License Tracker Inc., a Reprise Software partner, has produced a "Limited Edition" (LE) version of its leading license usage reporting tool. This LE version supports the RLM report log format and is free.

The "Limited Edition" supports sites with 10 or fewer users, and 15 or fewer licensed products or features. The LE version can be converted into a full version by obtaining a license key from License Tracker. The Limited Edition joins License Tracker's File DB Edition and Server DB Edition, both of which operate without user or feature limitations and provide automation tools, creating a family of products supporting the usage analysis needs of vendors and larger software users.

"We are excited about how the Limited Edition provides access to usage analysis and software asset management to smaller software users - the same benefits that larger enterprises already enjoy with our File DB and Server DB Editions.”, said Mr. Rick Ingram, President of License Tracker. “By removing the need for an evaluation license, the LE version also speeds up and simplifies the evaluation process so users and vendors can immediately begin producing reports to help understand their software usage."

“By supporting the RLM report log format within this Limited Edition of License Tracker, RLM licensees and their users have immediate access to a free entry-level reporting tool.” said Matt Christiano, Reprise Software’s founder and president. “We think that the availability of the LE version from our partner License Tracker will quickly expand the market for both companies’ products by providing users with immediate proof of how easy RLM can be integrated into a rich usage reporting framework.”

LicenseTracker LE will allow Independent Software Vendors to:

• Build the foundation of a pay-per-use sales model

• Improve customer satisfaction by helping users optimize their software licenses

LicenseTracker LE will also allow Software Users to:

• Plan for expanded software license capacity

• Optimize software maintenance costs

• Ensure proper license usage

• Administer fair departmental cost splitting and charge-backs

Enter into and monitor usage-based software licensing agreements

In addition to supporting RLM's open report log format, the License Tracker product also supports other popular licensing report log formats.

RLM supports a core set of license types with license policy removed from the software and placed into the license key - in order to make integration and support easier for Independent Software Vendors, and to make the meaning of the license more transparent to the end-user community. Perhaps most important to end users, Reprise Software is RLM’s fully documented usage data report format.
