3.2Device Asset Manager
Overview
In today’s organisations, users typically rely on multiple devices, ranging from computers and laptops to tablets and mobile phones. The request and provisioning of these devices is often managed manually by the Service Desk and specific IT teams, leading to lengthy delivery time frames and SLAs which incur significant costs. Additionally, tracking and managing devices manually can be time-consuming, lead to lost assets, outdated records and unnecessary costs.
Activate’s intelligent Asset Management streamlines these processes, saving time and money by providing full integration and management as users join, transition or leave the organisation. This ensures efficient asset allocation, tracking at all stages and significantly reduces manual effort and associated costs.
Asset Assignment
Assign devices automatically during onboarding based on role, location or department. Activate ensures every user receives the correct hardware without manual tracking or delays, helping streamline setup and reduce admin workload.
Full Lifecycle Tracking
Track each device from assignment to return with complete visibility. Activate manages asset status changes across the user lifecycle, ensuring accurate records and reducing the risk of lost or unreturned equipment.
Centralised Inventory Management
Maintain a live inventory of all assigned and available devices in one place. Activate gives IT teams a clear view of stock levels, helping improve planning, reduce over-purchasing and support compliance.
