To accelerate the speed of Software Asset Management (SAM) adoption and minimize the disruption associated with implementing a new technology, Snow makes it easy to integrate the SAM platform with existing investments such as autodiscovery tools, IT Asset Management (ITAM) solutions and Service Desks. Snow Integration Connectors reduce both licensing and implementation costs by taking advantage of existing investments and avoiding technology duplication.
SNOW INTEGRATION CONNECTORS AT-A-GLANCE:
- Multiple options for 3rd party inventory, ITSM & ITAM tools
- Automated data import and export
- All data cleansed through Software Recognition Service
- Accelerate SAM implementation timescales
- Reduce costs & avoid duplication
Snow Integration Connectors are grouped into two key categories:
THIRD-PARTY INVENTORY CONNECTORS
Snow Integration Connectors can automatically consolidate audit data from multiple inventory tools into a single view of all software and hardware assets from across the network and beyond. All audit data imported through a Snow Connector is automatically processed through the Snow Software Recognition Service to ensure the accuracy of software titles, versions and more.
Snow offers connectors to a growing number of third-party inventory solutions, including:
- BMC ADDM
- Dell KACE K1000
- Heat (Formerly FrontRange) Discovery
- HP DDMI
- IBM ILMT
- IBM TADd and BigFix Inventory
- LANDesk
- Microsoft SCCM 2007/2012

And connectors for EMM / MDM solutions that include:
- AirWatch
- MobileIron
…and more
