Performance of AssetExplorer Across Market Features

AssetExplorer Likes & Dislikes

Like

It Maintains the Asset accuracy like Ownership of Asset, Lifecycle of Asset and location it is available and associated warranty

Like

I like the agent. It adds it to Endpoint Central and the asset will appear in Asset Explorer.

Like

License management, asset inventory management and customized reports

Dislike

Manual Efforts Needs for checking the asset data, though all information is available, but it is hard to manually validate for large environments

Dislike

Just weird issues that come up. One of them recently was even though I set a custom state to not scan. It still tried to scan it and then marked it as disposed.

Dislike

Issue during the upgrade but the manage engine team will be available during the upgrade if informed prior

    Overall it works. When we first started using it the agent was terrible. But now they have UEMS agent that connects with Endpoint Central is nice. Support is helpful but we've had some very strange issues that can take awhile for support to figure out. But they did resolve them.

    Automating Hardware and Software Inventory Record Keeping

    4.0
    Jan 6, 2025
    Helped us to automate record keeping for our hardware and software inventory and asset listing, as well as discovery of hardware and software within the network, replacing the manpower consuming process of manual check. However, it is good to maintain your manual asset inventory list before you decide to 100% rely on the system.
