  • Licensing framework for Hardware Asset Management solutions
    Manage the subscription units purchased and consumed by your organization for all the Hardware Asset Management solutions with the improved HAM licensing framework. When more than one Hardware Asset Management solution is activated on a ServiceNow instance, any licensable and opted-in resource category is licensed only under one solution.
  • Hardware Asset Management license exclusion
    Pay only for the assets using licensed Hardware Asset Management features and exclude an asset for which you don't want to use the licensed features.
