Asset Management
What is Asset Management?
The Asset Management module is a comprehensive tool designed to track, monitor, and manage all types of organizational assets, including hardware, software, and non-IT assets. It also tracks the finances and contracts associated with these assets, simplifying the maintenance of all related records. The module is built to handle the complexity of asset management and related functions, empowering IT teams to automate end-to-end asset lifecycle management, manage the Configuration Management Database (CMDB), perform automatic discovery, generate detailed reports, and more.
Without an asset management system, maintaining asset records manually can be time-consuming, energy-draining, and costly. Manually searching for specific records can also be a daunting task. Motadata’s Asset Management addresses these challenges by providing a centralized platform to easily record and manage all assets and their related data.
In summary, the Motadata Asset Management system offers simplicity, scalability, and robust features, enabling efficient management of both IT and non-IT assets while optimizing the costs associated with maintaining them.
