ITS Manager - Hardware Asset

Hardware IT Asset Management

This page explains how ITS Manager helps businesses inventory and track PCs, laptops, servers, network devices, monitors, printers, storage devices, serial numbers, warranty and assigned users.

Know where each device is, who uses it and what condition it is in

Clear hardware data helps IT reduce asset loss, manage warranty, plan replacements and compare declared assets with Agent inventory.

Problems when hardware assets are not managed

When devices are tracked in scattered spreadsheets, it is hard to know ownership, condition and replacement priority.

Lost assets and weak handover

Laptops, monitors, network devices or drives move between employees without a reliable handover history.

Risky devices are missed

Expired warranty, aging devices, small disks or weak configurations are not detected early.

Audit evidence is scattered

During inventory or asset review, IT must collect data from invoices, spreadsheets, email and users.

FAQ about hardware IT asset management

Is Agent required?

Declared asset data can be managed without Agent, but Agent helps verify actual endpoint configuration and status.

Can network devices be managed?

Yes. Routers, switches, firewalls, access points, NAS, servers and office devices can be managed as asset groups.

Is this useful for small businesses?

From around 10-20 computers, asset management helps reduce loss, duplicate purchases and handover issues.
