2023: A New Year And A New Way To Manage Your IT Asset Register

Published on January 9, 2023 • 3 min read

It’s a brand new year and it’s the right time to make plans for the year ahead. A lot of us make plans for our personal lives but not everyone includes their businesses in their resolutions. However, with the help of itemit’s software, you can manage your IT asset register easily. 

2023 has only just started and now is a great time for you to start managing all of your IT assets in a better way. You can take full control of all of your assets and, as a result, run your business more effectively. 

Let’s take a look at just some of the benefits of managing your IT asset register.

You Know What Assets You Have

It can be all too easy to lose track of the assets that you have. For example, if you work in an office you could have dozens of desktop computers, a handful of laptops, and many tablets. You may also have 12 printers, a few modems, and other essential IT equipment.

When you fail to keep track of your assets they’re more likely to become lost, stolen, or damaged. They may also fail to work as well as they should. However, when you have an asset register that details all of your IT assets you can be in control. At the touch of a button you can see:

• Which team member has which assets
• Where the assets are 
• What each asset’s maintenance status is
• What each asset looks like
• The price and date of purchase 
• The insurance and warranty information
•  And so much more 

Additionally, when you know what assets you have you can make more informed decisions about your business’s future. 

Let’s imagine that you want to open a new office in another location. You may assume you’ll need to buy new IT equipment for the office. However, this may not actually be the case. If you know that you already have 2-3 more computers than you need, you could send them to your new office. As a result, you could spend less money opening a new office. However, you may not have been privy to this information if you did not have access to an IT asset register. Therefore, you may have spent more money than you really needed to. 

As you can see from this example, it is possible for you to make better informed decisions about the future of your business. Having something as simple but as useful as an asset register can help your business immensely.

You Know Where Your Assets Are

One of the greatest benefits of using itemit’s IT asset register software is that it can track your assets. It is entirely possible for you to know where your assets are at all times. 

As long as each of your assets has a QR code or RFID tag attached you can track them. All that you need to do is to create a digital profile for each asset and you can start tracking them. When you have the ability to track your assets it helps with security. You can see where your assets are and understand whether they’re in the right location. 

Asset tracking is useful for both fixed and non-fixed assets. Should you work in a large building or on a large site and you wish to find a machine you can log into itemit’s menu. As long as the fixed asset in question has a QR code or an RFID tag attached you can see where it is. This means you won’t have to search high and low for that machine. You can simply locate it with ease and start to use or repair it. It really is that simple.
