DeskCenter® Management Suite optimises a number of administrative tasks within IT organisations. The tasks of administrators and decision makers are increasingly towards having to manually maintain data banks and the consolidation of different databases. Numerous isolated applications complicate the performance of these tasks even more.
Taking this into account, with the Deskcenter® Management Suite all PCs, servers, assets, configurations and applications are administrated efficiently and entirely from a central point. The integration of all modules into one application and one user interface permits fast and effective working methods and the solution can be embedded into existing IT infrastructures. Our inventory of hardware and software information generates a consistent database for a professional IT Lifecycle Management.
The Management Suite comprises one of the most comprehensive product portfolios on the market and helps decision makers and IT managers to save time and to perform all IT processes and guidelines in the organisation quickly and reliably.
The foundation
The basic module already comes with some powerful functions:
Hardware and Software Inventory - The combination of different manual and automatic methods of data detection and inventory ensures the most complete inventory possible.
Licence Management - Compares the installed software in the network with the number of purchased licences on the database and divides them into three states (sub licencing, correct licencing and over licencing).
Asset Management - In addition to predefined data you can add user specific master data for each asset.
User Management - The linkage between users (imported from ADS/NDS) and assets, considerably eases the search for the IT staff, especially if there are questions or problems concerning hardware.
User Permissions - Specific rights can be assigned to users in order to restrict the access to modules or to parts of them.
Cost Centre Management - Assets, software, users and helpdesk tickets can be allocated to cost centres.
Reporting - The reporting tool allows full access to the open Microsoft® SQL-database. The reporting tool can also be installed as a standalone application, for controllers or decision makers for example.
Holistic IT Lifecycle Management
In addition to these functions, the following modules extend the DeskCenter® Management Suite into a holistic IT-Lifecycle Management Suite:
- Management (Remote and System Management)
- SNMP (inventory of SNMP-able network devices)
- Extended Licence Management (detection of software products that are subject to licences by a licence database)
- Software Delivery (Software Delivery for MSI and setups)
- Patch Management
- OS Deployment
- Document Extensions (Document Management)
- Helpdesk (incl. Knowledge Base and web frontend)
- Service Management
- Pocket PC (inventory control of systems and components on site)
