Mobile IT Inventory Tracking Slashes Your Risk for Theft, Loss & More

At first glance, IT inventory tracking is an enormous task – and yet it’s one of the most important actions performed by any organization. First of all, IT assets represent a large proportion of your investments, whether you’re a small nonprofit or global corporation with household name brand recognition. The larger the organization, the more challenging it is to stay on top of your IT assets as they move from office to office, office to conference room, and beyond your own four walls to private homes, planes, taxis, hotels, etc. The opportunity for loss and theft is significant, and it’s not just your devices that are at risk; it’s the data stored on them. If you haven’t taken proper security measures, you’re putting your employees and potentially your customers at risk for a breach.

The more IT inventory you acquire, the more challenging it is to keep up with routine maintenance, insurance policy information, depreciation, check-in/check-out status and other details. If you’re simply logging this information on a static Excel spreadsheet, you’ve made the task even more difficult. The details about IT assets and inventory are always changing, so attempting to keep up with that data an Excel document is an exercise in futility. You’re also setting yourself for errors. We’re humans, after all, and it’s all too easy to enter a typo, forget to log an item or an update. The demands of our daily jobs make it nearly impossible to keep up with all of those moving parts. IT inventory software introduced efficiency to the process, with an abundance of products offering varied features.
