IT Asset Management Solutions -helpful information
IT asset management enables you to track and control your IT assets more effectively, achieving a more reliable, secure environment as well as financial benefits.
Businesses struggle constantly to gain visibility and control over their IT assets. All too often they are faced with financial penalties arising from an inability to locate end-of-lease equipment. This problem can be easily compounded with business acquisitions, the use of mobile devices and office removals. Manual asset taking processes are slow, cumbersome, costly and quite frankly, obsolete.

Understanding IT asset management solutions
While they vary in their features and capabilities, IT asset management solutions are generally software tools that automatically locate and identify a computer’s (client or server) hardware (CPU, memory, drives, etc) and installed software. The software utilises a database to record this information and provide notification to an administrator in case of newly installed software or disparity in system configuration.
The database is also used to maintain a record of the physical location of tracked devices along with relevant information, such as end-of-lease dates, third-party technical support provider, support history, serial numbers and physical location.
Business benefits
The benefits of implementing an IT asset management solution include:
immediate alerts in case of unauthorised software installations, improving security
maintenance of accurate software licence control, avoiding potentially damaging litigation
quickly identify device brands and models that have a history of excessive support requirements
improve the return rate on end-of-lease IT assets
