Supports license compliance and reporting with strong discovery while monitoring capabilities require improvements

  • November 11, 2025
  • Review from a verified AWS customer

What is our primary use case?

Flexera One's compliance tracking is excellent, although sometimes it does not provide the exact report due to the customer's environment, which can be improved. Otherwise, the compliance part is good, especially during the harvesting of the products and software, and the compliance metrics offer a good summary.

From my perspective, I would rate Flexera One an eight.

If asked whether I would recommend ServiceNow instead of Flexera One, I would not, because as a user who creates reports and provides compliance reports, I find ServiceNow more complex and less user-friendly. The lack of clear information and the improper identification of queues make it fall short compared to Flexera One, which I would rate around five or six in comparison.

What is most valuable?

The feature that I find most valuable in Flexera One is the discovery, which is crucial from an ITAM point of view to capture the entire environment and all the software installed in my customer's environment. Flexera One is really very comfortable and compatible with other tools such as SCCM and all the integration that it provides. Based on the discovery information it gathers for me, it truly helps me in my consumption report that I prepare. My customers do utilize Flexera One for multi-cloud management.

To measure the effectiveness of Flexera One's cost management features, I take into account user-based, device-based, and processor management metrics.

What needs improvement?

In terms of what could be improved about Flexera One from an ITAM point of view, I feel that if Flexera One could provide a calculation representation, it would be beneficial. While it shows various configurations regarding where my server and VM are placed, it does not indicate how many licenses are needed or how the calculations are performed.

To bring it closer to a ten, I would prioritize improvements in monitoring. For one of my customers, the monitoring aspect has been tricky due to the need for live database information, which could be enhanced using AI technology.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have been working on Flexera One for almost seven years, starting from a consultant point of view.

What about the implementation team?

I do not usually take part in the implementation of Flexera One, as we have developers for that purpose. I simply communicate my requirements and the customer's environmental needs to the developer who implements it.

Which other solutions did I evaluate?

Flexera One's pricing in the market is quite high, primarily because it is one of its kind. ServiceNow is another competitor gaining popularity due to offering various ITAM modules in one place, although I feel that it is not as capable as Flexera One.

What other advice do I have?

It depends from customer to customer and upon their environment, and I do not deal with selling the product independently. My responsibility is to sell the solution of the product and to assist the presales team in how we can help the customer with ITAM, while the presales team handles pitching the prices.

I am not sure about the specific impact Flexera One has had on their operations, as I haven't seen significant feedback regarding it.

I would rate my overall experience with this solution an eight.

From a portfolio perspective, it has allowed us to validate what servers and applications we have

  • December 17, 2018
  • Review from a verified AWS customer

The primary use case is migrating the existing work load. Therefore, we use it to analyze our application portfolio for migrating us to AWS.
How has it helped my organization?
It identified integrations between applications that we didn't know about. It saved us a lot of hassle from that perspective, because we knew about them upfront. As opposed to migrating the applications, then finding out the integrated applications either had to be rolled back or would need some extra work.
What is most valuable?
* It gives us extra visibility that we didn't already have around how our applications are integrated with one another.
* From a portfolio perspective, it has allowed us to validate what servers and applications we have.
* It has helped us with our migration exercises.
What needs improvement?
It seemed to take a relatively long time to implement, which surprised me. I thought it would be quicker.
The initial deployment and installation does require skilled resources. I was hoping it would be easier to do, and that some of our own team could do it, but we had to engage some professional services team members to do it for us. We would have liked to have done the initial deployment and installation in-house.
While it worked well for our use case, I get the impression that it doesn't support every workload. If people are using other platforms, they might not integrate as well into this solution.
For how long have I used the solution?
Less than one year.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
Sometimes it can be a bit slow, but overall, it works pretty well.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
It is easy to scale.
How is customer service and technical support?
I haven't used the technical support.
How was the initial setup?
The integration and configuration through the AWS environment was a bit difficult.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
We are using the paid version of the product, which we purchased on the AWS Marketplace. We just put it on the local CIOs credit card. That was the easiest way for us to do it, and we wanted to get it up and running quickly. So, we put it down as a regular working operating expense.
It is expensive, but we can justify it. It would definitely be an expensive option in night time to run it continually. We decided to make a purchase just to help us with this migration. However, in the long-term, I don't know if we'll use it because of the cost.
Which other solutions did I evaluate?
The product was recommended by AWS, so we went with it and didn't do much of a pre-evaluation. We decided to try it and see how it worked out.
I would recommend to others to look around at other options as well to do a comparison. That is something we obviously didn't do.
What other advice do I have?
We are very happy with it.
