IT Inventory Management

PASS System Inventory: The IT Inventory Management Software for the central inventory management of hardware and software

Practice-oriented all-in-one IT Inventory Management

Cross-departmental real-time lifecycle management of your equipment with our System Inventory

Our IT Inventory Management Software provides simple and clear inventory management of hardware, software, licenses, consumables, purchase orders and contracts, and provides a real-time, continuous view of assets under management. In addition, cross-departmental interfaces for IT Inventory Management (e.g. between IT and purchasing) are available to ensure a uniform flow of information and standardized processes.

Frequently, hardware, software and agreements are managed by companies in Excel lists. However, these become very complex and confusing as the scope increases. In addition, links between assets and users can only be displayed to a limited extent in Excel. There is therefore a significant need for comprehensive IT Inventory Management Software to centrally organize, manage and monitor IT.

Our System Inventory is designed for multi-client operation with various different companies and organizational units, and is therefore also suitable for managing complex structures.

Why you should use the central IT inventory system PASS System Inventory

A central inventory system for your IT infrastructure

IT Inventory Management is carried out in enterprises using a number of different systems, which are often incompatible with one another. Data integrity is corrupted, information is lost, the error rate is high, and all this leads to increased employee effort and rising costs. 

Trying to manage these elements is becoming ever more complex thanks to the increasing flexibility and fast-paced nature of devices and software in the IT area, not to mention the associated leasing and maintenance contracts.

Optimization and economization when assigning software licenses

Furthermore, license audits lead to high costs due to poorly maintained inventory systems. Different license models (per seat, per core, per user) additionally complicate the balancing of licenses and software. 

Reduce manual processes

Decentralized data storage leads to time-consuming and costly processes for IT employees and management. With our IT inventory management application, data is managed centrally. This avoids high manual maintenance efforts and double data storage.

Hardware reporting

In addition to standard reports that can be called up with a click, it is also possible to create individual reports.
