Abstract
Computer system, computer implemented method and computer program product for determining a recommended course of action to resolve an unlicensed software installation of a type of software in a computer of a company. A determination is made as to an amount or level of use of the type of software by the company during a predetermined period of time. A determination is made if the type of software is currently installed on another computer of the company. A determination is made if the software of the unlicensed software installation can be relocated to the other computer of the company and encompassed under another existing license for the other computer. Alternately, automatic evaluations are made of characteristics of the company's use of (a) the type of software which would permit removal of the type of software from all computers of the company, (b) the software installation which would permit removal of the software installation, and (c) the type of software which would permit relocation of the software from the unlicensed software installation to another computer of the company at which the software would be licensed.
