Systems, methods, and computer program products are described that perform automated license reconciliation for deployed applications. The applications may be deployed among a plurality of computers. Agents are deployed on respective computers to determine the deployed applications. The agents further determine licensable software product identifiers corresponding to the respective instances of the applications. A license data source module provides entitlements corresponding to respective license agreement(s). A reconciliation module matches the entitlements to the instances of the applications to determine whether the instances of the applications are in compliance with the license agreement(s).
