What it is
Snow Atlas is Flexera’s cloud platform for IT asset management teams seeking a defensible software license position and lower software spend. It matches entitlements with applied licenses to calculate an effective license position, with verified data for Oracle Database, Java, E-Business Suite, and Middleware. Agents, APIs, and connectors consolidate hardware and software assets, while AI-based importing can ingest contracts and records such as invoices, purchase orders, and quotes. Its application catalog normalizes and enriches more than 800,000 applications from over 110,000 manufacturers. Usage metering can surface software use across an estate, including shadow IT, SaaS, and unsanctioned applications. Hardware management adds lifecycle and warranty visibility, plus mappings to users and applications. Read and write REST APIs support automation and bulk updates. Snow Atlas runs on Microsoft Azure, with customer-selectable regions listed in Amsterdam, London, Victoria, and Virginia. Flexera lists SOC 2 Type 2, ISO/ISE 27001, and Cloud Security Alliance STAR certifications. It is paid, with pricing available on request and no free plan listed.
