The cloud version of AssetExplorer is now available

 

We are thrilled to introduce the cloud version of our comprehensive ITAM platform, ManageEngine AssetExplorer. The on-demand version of AssetExplorer offers IT managers the essentials needed to manage the full life cycle of their IT assets, with multiple discovery methods, inventory management, usage monitoring, procurement, and reports and insights. IT managers around the world can experience AssetExplorer by signing up for a 30-day, fully functional, free trial here.

Beyond the ITAM essentials, AssetExplorer’s cloud version also features advanced automation to streamline asset workflows, and it readily supports popular integrations to effectively fit in with existing tool chains. Here’s a quick rundown of the key capabilities of the latest version of AssetExplorer:

  1. Visual workflow builder to automate life cycles and processes

ITAM processes, such as asset allocation and asset reclamation, can be standardized with visual workflows on an intuitive drag-and-drop canvas. IT managers can further execute custom actions at various asset states to automate the mundane aspects of ITAM.  

  1. Sync rules in a CMDB for a continuously updated relationship map

With the cloud version of AssetExplorer, any new IT asset added to the inventory, either through discovery or through other import methods, will be automatically added as a configuration item in the CMDB, and the infrastructure relationship map will be synced accordingly. IT managers can configure sync rules in the CMDB to manage an always-updated CMDB.

  1.  Asset compliance management for stress-free audits

Software licenses, license agreements, warranty contracts, and other time-bound compliance artifacts can be proactively managed with AssetExplorer. IT managers can instantly verify the compliance status and whether the operational sites are under-licensed or over-licensed for particular software, or whether any contracts are nearing expiry and require renegotiation.

  1. Real-time dashboards and instant reports to guide the ITAM strategy

The built-in reporting module and the real-time custom dashboards act as the North Star for your ITAM strategy and operations. AssetExplorer’s reporting module is flexible enough that IT managers can generate custom reports effortlessly, pick out precise KPIs to be monitored in their environment, and further set the unique KPI report as a visual chart on a dashboard to be monitored regularly.

  1. Readily available integrations with popular tools to enhance your tool chain

The cloud version of AssetExplorer can fit easily into your IT environment with native integrations with popular enterprise tools. For instance, when integrated with Microsoft Intune, the assets discovered in Intune can be managed in AssetExplorer. Or when integrated with Microsoft Azure, the operational sites, departments, and other details will be synced with AssetExplorer. There are several more integrations, such as with Zapier, and even with other ManageEngine solutions, such as Mobile Device Manager Plus and Zoho Analytics.
