Lansweeper's Updated JSM Assets Integration Marketplace App

Effective asset discovery is a foundational pillar for successful IT Service Management. Without comprehensive knowledge of what hardware and software exists within an organization, IT teams face significant blind spots, leading to inefficient service delivery, delayed incident resolution, and heightened security and compliance risks. Reliable asset discovery provides the necessary visibility into your environment, enabling accurate documentation of assets, their configurations, and their interdependencies.

Asset discovery is critical not just for inventory purposes but for driving informed decision making across all ITSM processes including Incident Management, Problem Management, Change Enablement, Request Fulfillment, and Asset Lifecycle Management. Organizations that prioritize robust asset discovery practices can significantly enhance operational efficiency, reduce downtime, and improve service quality and user satisfaction.

Comprehensive Asset Discovery

The integration seamlessly imports rich discovery data from Lansweeper into JSM Assets, ensuring your CMDB is always accurate, current, and reliable. By automating asset data synchronization, teams eliminate manual data entry, significantly reducing the chance of errors and freeing valuable time for strategic initiatives.

  • Enhanced Incident Management: When incidents arise, timely resolution is critical. With detailed asset information at their fingertips, service desk agents can quickly pinpoint affected assets, understand their configurations, and diagnose problems rapidly. By reducing guesswork and improving visibility into the infrastructure environment, incident resolution times are significantly shortened, enhancing user satisfaction and service reliability.

  • Smarter Problem Management: Effective problem management requires accurate data to identify patterns and root causes. By leveraging precise asset configurations provided by Lansweeper, teams can quickly correlate incidents and identify recurring issues. This comprehensive insight enables quicker problem resolution and the proactive prevention of future incidents, ultimately improving overall service quality.

  • Streamlined Change Enablement: Change management carries inherent risks, especially when changes are poorly informed or insufficiently validated. The Lansweeper/JSM integration allows teams to confidently validate changes, minimize risks, and avoid disruptions caused by failed or incomplete changes.

  • Proactive Request Fulfillment: Empower your end users by offering an enriched service request catalog backed by accurate, up-to-date asset inventory data. Users can effortlessly request software, hardware, or other resources knowing exactly what's available and approved. Asset managers also gain greater visibility into demand patterns, ensuring proactive asset lifecycle management and optimized inventory control.

  • Efficient Asset Lifecycle Management: With ongoing, automated discovery and synchronization, asset lifecycle management becomes simpler and more efficient. Organizations can easily track asset acquisitions, installations, upgrades, and retirements, enabling better resource allocation, budget forecasting, compliance management, and audit readiness.
