Difference between SUA and Application Usage Dashboard

(imported topic written by SystemAdmin)

is there documentation that outlines the limitations of the Application Usage Dashboard vs SUA?

Why would someone buy SUA when you can use the dashboard to track apps?

SUA tracks 100,000+ apps and actively scans for them. Native BigFix only looks for apps in a few constrained spots.

SUA provides license compliance features that native BigFix does not.

SUA provides analysis and reporting – in a separate web application dedicated to this purpose – that you can’t get through the Console.

The list is quite long… I would check out:
