The easiest way to answer core IT Asset Management questions: what do we own, where is it located, and who’s using it?
The Certero Unified Platform has the powerful Certero discovery capability including virtualisation and cloud coverage, to provide a complete view of IT assets no matter what or where they are.
This single, consolidated and cleansed data source is therefore the perfect foundation for effective Hardware Asset Management (HAM), Software Asset Management (SAM), Tech Support and IT Service Management (ITSM) and overall technology governance and optimization.
Being Certero, you can have the technology exactly how you want it:
As a Solution – as a tactical Service – installed on-premises – delivered for you as SaaS.
Certero removes the traditional complexity and cost of having to combine multiple disparate toolsets, just to get a complete view of IT assets.
Empower fast and informed decision making with consolidated and detailed IT asset intelligence that supports multiple technology governance programs.
End-user devices, network infrastructure and anything with an IP address is discovered and inventoried.
Multi-protocol discovery leaves no hiding places, even within the datacenter or remote assets that are off the corporate network.
No complicated architectures, multi-server implementations or scalability challenges.
Simple integration with any Service Desk.
Automatically find new & unknown devices as the IT estate changes.
Common architecture, administration console, user interface and & asset repository.
Certero delivers lightning-fast IT asset discovery in minutes, not weeks, using network tools and inputs like Active Directory. Run fully in the cloud with minimal on-premise setup for faster results.
Certero can identify computers running on all major enterprise platforms, including:
Unlike many inventory solutions that are primarily designed to support just one purpose, Certero is built to support multiple needs, from Hardware Asset Lifecycle to Software Asset Management, IT Service Management to Security and Technology Governance.
Certero captures a full hardware configuration inventory for all device types and retains this data in the Unified Platform’s central asset repository where it is available to all Certero products and users.
With thousands of applications installed on your desktops and servers, Certero’s prioritized reporting makes it easy to focus on the applications you need to manage the most. Full software recognition comes courtesy of the global Software Recognition Database and is available in all Certero products across the Unified Platform, supporting compliance, license optimization, self-service and automating tasks like re-harvesting and patching.
To support use cases from compliance to spend management, Certero automatically tracks the usage of software titles, making it easy to highlight which applications are being under-used and should be either re-harvested or retired.
