What do you like best about Snow Commander?

Software Asset Management (SAM) is crucial for our organization since we handle many software acquisitions for internal and external users. Since most software comes with licensing, we use the Snow Commander console to optimize our consumption cost from its contextual & precise insights.

In our hybrid cloud infrastructure, clarity on resource usage and expenses are obtained as periodic reports from its dashboard. This helps us regulate our budget allocations and forecast our cloud costs for the upcoming quarter.

Snow Commander enables end-to-end automation with which we cut down our manual processing & efforts. Based on our policy governance, its Snow Engine process our expenditures across our multiple cloud accounts. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Snow Commander?

We have recently received approval from our client and started to work on Snow Commander, so we are taking time to explore its functionalities. We haven't had any bad experiences working on its platform. It ensures the allocation of specific software assets for any resource hosted in the cloud & helps understand its expenditures. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Snow Commander solving and how is that benefiting you?

Snow Commander is a fully-automated platform suitable for our hybrid cloud resource management. It prevents all manual approval staging through its automation features & significantly minimizes provisioning duration.

It follows agentless discovery architecture, with no need to install any third-party tools to gain visibility about our cloud resources. Each resource is tagged with our custom definitions, making tracking its performance and expenses straightforward.

SAM inventory & asset invoice processing for each cloud account can be streamlined based on our client requirements. Analyzing their insight reports helps us to effectively decommission unused software assets deployed in our hybrid cloud infrastructure. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Snow Commander?

Snow Software provides an easy to use overview of your software and hardware estate, allowing licensing and support teams to use the product with the permissions that they need only, I.E read-only, organisational restrictions etc. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Snow Commander?

The biggest downfall of Snow Software is the support, long waiting times and long release schedules for issues means you can be waiting a few months, or potentially year(s) before a bug is fixed. Support can take a long time to resolve an issue, which could be potentially impacting your business operations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Snow Commander:

The product is great, but take into account that you may have long waiting times on support requests so may be worth going via a partner that has a lot of in-house experience rather than direct with Snow. Even when doing that, however, product bugs can take a long time to resolve. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
