Flexera Software had grown significantly through acquisitions but was using over 20 different business systems that were not integrated, creating inefficiencies. It implemented FlexNet Operations Cloud to consolidate these systems into a single platform for license management, entitlements, and software delivery. This provided a better experience for customers and staff by streamlining processes and reducing manual work. The project was completed within six months through careful planning and delivered improved security, support, and a more reliable customer experience.

Success Story: Zollner Optimizes Management of SAP Licenses and Contracts wit...Flexera
Business Challenge: As a contract manufacturer, Zollner must be able to react very flexibly and reliably to changing demands. This challenge can only be met by technological sophistication, innovation and, above all, by robust IT support
The OpenText™ AppWorks™ Platform is the ideal solution to build new business applications and new business processes faster and in a simplified way. The solution leverages prior investments in enterprise software and legacy systems to bring together all existing IT assets and empowers the organization with the ability to monitor the entire enterprise under one platform.
As a result of budget constraints, reduced headcount and limited resources, Liquid Controls, a unit of IDEX Corporation, sought to automate tasks and processes to improve efficiency. Living in a world of non-stop projects that occur across time zones and geographies made the task more challenging. Yet the company expected to improve accountability, put more structure around the business processes and respond more effectively to changing requirements as a result of automation.
Liquid Controls’ IT Group searched for software that could address a broad range of needs – from Engineering Change Control requests, audit procedures and shop floor work construction to corrective action requests and sales orders. The Group wanted a BPM tool that would help them develop electronic, rules-based workflows and allow users to work with eForms as dynamic as the processes themselves. It also needed to ensure seamless access to information for both its employees and auditors.
By implementing Process Director throughout the company, Liquid Controls found a tool that enabled it to provide the output of a development shop without the overhead of one.

Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!

Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.

Comprehensive it asset management and desktop license optimization solution
1. Bursting at the Software Seams
As the pioneer and industry leader of
strategic Application Usage Management
solutions, Flexera Software has grown
to become a large and successful
company—a solidly profitable, top 200
software company with over 80,000
customers and market leadership in each
of its chosen markets.
Solid growth, however, does not mean that
Flexera Software hasn’t been through some
growing pains along the way. Acquisitions
and rapid growth had left Flexera
Software with a number of different
back-office ERP, CRM, software delivery,
entitlement and license management
systems that did not integrate and resulted
in manual and redundant processes.
“At the worst point,” said Project Manager
Curtis Chong, “We were supporting
more than 20 systems. It was possible
that a customer would have to go through
multiple systems and processes to manage
and access their license entitlements and
software downloads. It just didn’t make
sense from a cost, efficiency or user-
experience perspective. “
Flexera Software’s IT Department, led by
Vice President of Information Technology,
David Espindola, championed a project
to simplify and consolidate their business
systems and provide customers with a
single user experience.
“The ultimate goal,” said Espindola,
“Was to make it easier for our customers
to do business with us. We wanted our
customers to be able to go to one system
with one login and see their entitlements
for all the products they have purchased
from us and be able to download all the
software that they are entitled to.”
Espindola continued, “The project was also
part of our bigger goal of improving our
quote-to-cash process and eliminating a lot
of the legacy systems we had in place and
replacing them with the core platforms we
relied on—Salesforce.com, Oracle and our
own software.”
A Single Software Licensing and
Entitlement Management System is Key
The growing pains Flexera Software was
experiencing represented a turning point
for the organization. It helped that all
the business units within the organization
realized that it was time to unify behind
one system—their own solution:
FlexNet Operations Cloud, the SaaS-
based version of FlexNet Operations,
for their product’s licensing, entitlement
management and electronic software
delivery processes.
“With FlexNet Operations Cloud our goal
was to rapidly and seamlessly integrate
our licensing and entitlement management
processes with our CRM and ERP business
systems,” said Chong. “We also liked that
it was API-enabled, very scalable and
SaaS-based—and independent of any
specific network. Its high-availability was
very critical.”
The IT department envisioned a solution
where a sales opportunity would be
captured in Salesforce.com. The sales
representative would then take that
opportunity and turn it into a quote.
From there, the quote would turn into
an order. The order would then be
processed and sent to FlexNet Operations
Cloud, where the correct entitlement would
be assigned. Next, the order information
Success Story:
Flexera Software
“We chose FlexNet Operations Cloud (with
integration to Salesforce.com and Oracle eBusiness
Suite) as our solution to accomplish our goal to
provide an exceptional user experience… One user
interface. One single sign-on. One single process.
All product entitlements and downloads
in a single location.”
David Espindola
Vice President of
Information Technology
Flexera Software
Customer Profile: Flexera Software is the leading provider of strategic solutions for
Application Usage Management, helping businesses strategically manage application
usage. Their comprehensive suite of Application Usage Management solutions—from
software installation and licensing, entitlement management and software delivery to
application readiness and enterprise license optimization—uniquely meet the needs
of application producers and their customers by delivering continuous compliance,
optimized usage and maximized value.
Challenge:Flexera Software continues to experience significant growth, including
several acquisitions. As a result, they have accumulated several different platforms for
electronic software delivery and entitlement management, as well as legacy back-office
systems. This resulted in process inefficiencies and an inconsistent user experience.
Flexera Software realized the need to simplify, standardize and consolidate systems
in order to maximize efficiency and provide a single, consistent user experience.
Solution:Flexera Software migrated their business systems to FlexNet Operations
Cloud, a web-based entitlement, license management and software delivery solution.
In addition, they standardized on Salesforce.com for their CRM system and Oracle for
their financial system.
Benefits: FlexNet Operations Cloud allowed Flexera Software to have a single,
unified entitlement and license management system for customers that is available 24x7
while standardizing and streamlining many internal back-office processes.
