Certero App-Centre modernizes the way IT delivers software by providing a powerful, automated process from the employee’s request, through to approval (if required). The delivery of software is quick and simple and, when used in tandem with Certero for Enterprise SAM, the organization’s Effective License Position (ELP) is dynamically updated in real-time, ensuring continuous compliance.

Our enterprise app store software allows only approved software to be presented to users according to a set of easily defined criteria, such as applications that are relevant to a specific job role or management positions within the business. This ensures enterprises maintain control of software distribution whilst at the same time speeding up delivery and improving internal customer satisfaction.

Certero App-Centre utilizes the Certero for Enterprise SAM distribution feature or can integrate with Microsoft System Center Configuration Manager (SCCM), leveraging the software deployment capabilities to deliver each application quickly and reliably.

Our enterprise app store software features Certero’s powerful, in-built reporting engine, that provides the ability to report easily on software requests, approvals, installations and purchases.

Managers can set alerts to measure impact and success criteria systematically, sharing business intelligence with which sound decisions can be made on software licensing and usage across the enterprise.

Integration with Certero for Enterprise SAM allows available licenses to be deployed via Certero App-Centre, minimizing overspend on software licenses and maintaining SAM best practices.

Integration with the most popular ITSM systems ensures full visibility of actions performed by our enterprise app store software, recorded automatically via a ticketing system to remain fully auditable, complementing ITIL principles.

Intelligent filtering presents users with intuitive ways to find the software they need through a self-service portal. From selecting titles by function, description, product name, customized tags or the already familiar product icons, it couldn’t be easier to find what you need; simply click and receive the software in seconds.

Whether a request for an application requires approval before being fulfilled may depend on factors, such as the potential cost of the software and whether the application is appropriate for the user’s role within the business. For example, Adobe Reader may not have an associated cost and therefore not require approval, whereas AutoCAD software could require approval from either a Line Manager, SAM Manager or the budget holder before being fulfilled. 

Certero App-Centre provides a simple email-based approval process. This ensures relevant requests are emailed to the appropriate business managers for approval including details of the user request, the application required, the reason for the request and the number of spare or available licenses. 

With our enterprise app store software, all activities are fully auditable if required. Administrators have the ability to view an audit trail of all the previous applications that have been requested, users also have the added capability to check the status of their requests at any time.

Certero App-Centre offers the capability for users to apply their own corporate identity to the portal, so when employees log into the system it feels very much a part of your organization. Apply your own logo and color scheme to suit your brand requirements.
