What We Faced
Challenge
The client had no reliable method of producing an accurate, comprehensive view of the complete IT assets and health of their IT infrastructure.
Users, physical assets, software applications, licensing, and other key data were inaccurate and manually maintained in Word documents and Excel spreadsheets. Inaccurate information regarding recovery points, data backups, and virus protection also presented a challenge.
In addition, inability to gain insight into their baseline of assets and what needed to be upgraded, procured, and supported prevented opportunities to make informed and effective business decisions. Without this visibility, it was difficult to establish a starting point for a desired managed services support engagement.
