Macrovision Signs Corporate Purchasing Agreement with Lockheed Martin for its FLEXnet Manager Licensing Management Solution.SANTA CLARA, Calif. -- Macrovision Corporation (NASDAQ: MVSN) today announced that it has entered into a corporate purchasing agreement with Lockheed Martin covering FLEXnet Manager, for managing the licensing usage of Lockheed Martin's engineering software products. FLEXnet Manager delivers industry leading capabilities for managing, tracking and streamlining license management practices. Lockheed Martin Corporation signed a Master License Agreement for FLEXnet Manager to be used throughout the enterprise. By using FLEXnet Manager as part of a centralized licensing pool, the potential exists to save license costs by managing license capacity across multiple locations. Additionally, the ability to share and retrieve licensing data in real-time means the procurement and customer service processes can be improved, which brings greater satisfaction to customers. Lockheed Martin also implemented Macrovision's AdminStudio and Workflow Manager offerings for command control and distributed patch management. "We are very pleased that Lockheed Martin is expanding its use of FLEXnet Manager and are happy to be able to provide them with the solutions and services that bring value to their business," said Fred Amoroso, CEO of Macrovision. With FLEXnet Manager's ability to manage, track and streamline license management process, business units are able to ensure their software users have access to the licenses they need to complete projects. FLEXnet Manager is an automated licensing solution that is designed to eliminate the need for manual administration and monitor each business unit's license usage so purchases, renewals and software maintenance are based on actual need rather than estimates.
