The Importance of IT Assets Management
From desktop computers and servers to organizational data, IT resources have significantly evolved in the past two decades. There is a growing need for every business to be a digital-first entity, and without proper management, they risk overspending on unused software and hardware or underutilizing these assets.
Here is why IT asset managers must keep up with the best practices:
· Tracking Usage
Keeping tabs on which resources are most or least used by stakeholders is the primary pain point for CIOs. It risks poor student experience and an inefficient IT environment on one hand, and budget constraints on the other.
· Providing Inter-departmental Support
Things become more complex when you have to provide IT resources across departments. Varying demands and compliance regulations can lead to untimely or inadequate deployment of hardware and software resources.
· Ensuring Software Compliance
A higher education institution has hundreds of software applications across campus. Without proper management, there may be a breach in usage leading to compliance risks. Moreover, there may also be underutilized software that you may be spending on. IT asset management helps you fulfill compliance while sizing down on unused software.
