| Abstract: | Effective management of software assets in their whole lifespan is the main goal of software asset management (SAM) and is a contemporary organizational practice. It includes a range of tasks such as purchasing, implementing, and maintaining software inside a company. SAM seeks to minimize the risks and expenses related to software ownership while ensuring that software resources are used as efficiently as possible to support business activities. Recently, a great increase in the use of this technique has occurred, especially in large‐scale enterprises where the complexity and diversity of software assets have faced major hurdles. The proposed study presents an overview of the analysis of the recent approaches and hurdles in the area of SAM. Because big software companies have access to a multitude of resources and experience, maximizing the reuse of software assets inside these organizations is a common topic of academic and industrial study. Through the integration of several important attributes from previous research endeavors, the current study seeks to determine the most common attributes for the research. The study aims to contribute to the area by integrating the Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) along with the Weighted Aggregated Sum Product Assessment (WASPAS) approaches to give a rigorous and systematic way to analyze and rate the prominent qualities for selection of the most appropriate choice among the available alternatives.
