Go Beyond Spiceworks® with VAM for Corporate Enterprises
Visual Asset Manager tackles the specifics that Spiceworks simply can’t handle because of its location-based focus.
We understand that — and that’s why we’ve designed Visual Asset Manager to work seamlessly with Spiceworks (and other IT discovery tools such as LANDesk, SMS, Track-IT, and OCS)— going far beyond its simple discovery capability to make your desktop a IT Asset Management powerhouse.
Corporations of all sizes typically track IT Assets across multiple locations and across multiple offices. Visual Asset Manager's centralized approach allows reduced inventory searching activity and reduced cost on redundant activities across multiple departments.
That’s because keeping Visual Asset Manager up to date is as simple as scanning a barcode on the IT asset, scanning the location code, and pushing a button. With automatic synchronization and publishing from the handheld device, you have reduced the time to update your database with accurate locations to seconds. Beats a clipboard any day!
Additionally, our ITIL V3 Framework templates make IT Services Tracking, Data Center management and IT Reporting simple and easy. Coupled with our RFID services module, you know exactly when equipment is moved from rack to rack or from rack to service. This reduces the amount of auditing required as you only audit assets that have not been acted on within six months.

With Marcus V8 Fleet Tracking by Discrete Wireless, Visual Asset Manager shows you the location of each vehicle in real-time. You know that your service or delivery vehicle is on its way so you can tell your customer with certainty the exact ETA.
With data center Active RFID tracking, you know in real-time what rack the server is in even though the server is powered off. You know in real-time that the server is being moved to a new rack or removed to a service area.
Say goodbye to your facilities manager walking around with a clip board doing an impromptu inventory because you need to know how many executives in their offices have a certain model of chair, desk or phone. Say goodbye to your IT staff having to search offices for laptops or hardware configurations.
The bottom line is that Visual Asset Manager, together with RFID and Fleet Tracking, is an asset management powerhouse that corporations across the United States and worldwide have already experienced — and that have seen tangible increases in overall productivity, ease in tracking money spent on assets and other critical reporting details, and much more.
