Hardware Audit  

As an IT Manager, you should always be prepared for an IT audit request. By being prepared for any kind of hardware auditing request, you are in a stronger negotiation position with manufacturers – when the threat of an IT audit is no longer menacing. Moreover, IT departments are frequently required to reconcile their physical inventory with an electronic inventory to meet various regulatory and financial requirements. This can be cumbersome, unless you have implemented an IT Asset Management tool like SAManage, to allow you to manage and audit your entire computer inventory easily.  

Auditing Your Computers Easily

Beyond the complexities of hardware audits, software asset management introduces even greater challenges -- for example, auditing a hardware device for the software it contains, and the complexity of software recognition - mapping the many files found to licensed applications and units in the accounting system. 

SAManage performs a audit of all PC and Software inventory, including a total hardware audit of PCs, servers, laptops, printers and other types of hardware devices. The network inventory also covers network printers, switches, wi-fi points and other devices. By automating the process with SAManage, you will quickly see how it is a much more efficient and thorough process than the all-to-familiar headache of a manual hardware audit. 

What hardware does SAManage audit? 

SAManage collects and audits over 200 hardware properties including RAM, Processors, Video and monitors, Sound cards, Local Drives, Network shares, PC shares, Printers, Modems and more...

With SAManage, it’s much more than conducting a thorough hardware audit. You really get more control over your IT Assets. In addition to the computer auditing features, SAManage is a comprehensive, scalable IT Asset Management solution. And perhaps most important - SAManage is a SaaS based system. You can finally forget about managing network audit software and start doing your auditing and discovery the on-demand way.
