As part of its commitment to operational integrity and digital governance, Zensar maintains strong standards of software and asset management. The organization's global scale and sharp focus on transparency and governance made it essential to adopt an intelligent platform to automate and centralize asset visibility across its distributed digital landscape.

Transformation

Transforming governance in the Age of AI

The rise of AI across global enterprises has unlocked new operational possibilities, reshaping the way organizations govern, track, and optimize their technology landscape. Zensar recognized early the essential role AI would play in elevating asset governance from traditional record-keeping to a proactive, intelligence-driven function.

ZioSet emerged as the perfect fit for this vision.

Built with AI at its core, ZionIT's platform offered Zensar a powerful blend of automation, real-time analytics, and fully customizable software intelligence. The platform seamlessly integrated with organizational workflows, enabling real-time discovery, automated classification, compliance visibility, and deep insights into software usage across Zensar's global environment.

The platform's ability to evolve in parallel with the enterprise meant that ZioSet offered not just visibility, but foresight as Zensar continued its digital transformation journey.

Compliance

AI-enabled software compliance: A strategic advantage

As the digital ecosystem continues to expand and licensing models evolve, elevating software governance and compliance across its global operations is a key priority for Zensar. Zensar, therefore, proactively sought a platform that would match its ambition for intelligence-driven, future-ready governance.

ZioSet aligned perfectly with this vision, offering capabilities far beyond traditional inventory systems.

The platform's AI engine intelligently distinguished between free, open-source, trial, and commercial software, ensuring that every installation was correctly classified and tracked. Its real-time capability identified instances where trial or free software transitioned into commercial usage, an area of compliance risk that is often missed by traditional SAM tools.

By automating these layers of compliance monitoring, ZioSet enabled Zensar to proactively address licensing risks, maintain an optimal governance posture, and support audit readiness at all times. This was not just a compliance win; it was also an operational one.
