Inventory Insights

1E Inventory Insights captures accurate, timely inventory, and enriches it with insight by normalizing software records into a standard vendor, product, and version format, this gives IT teams advanced analysis to make better decisions.

Inventory Insights provides:

  • Normalized inventory: Which consolidates and normalizes your software inventory into a consistent vendor, product, and version schema so you can get a clear view on what’s out there. Understand software usage, such as which devices have the most titles installed and what versions they are.
  • Unmatched Software: This is a list of software that wasn't automatically normalized by the 1E Catalog. You can create custom rules to standardize them.
  • All Software: Provides you with a flat list of every software title in your organization.

Inventory Insights uses data from theCatalog to uniquely identify software products deployed in your estate and apply auto-fill entitlement information using software SKU.

Our refreshed platform modules take advantage of Modern UI design principles, and include the following new elements:

  • An expandable left-hand and drop-down menu to browse different pages. The menu can be expanded or collapsed using the chevron icons located at the top and bottom of the pane.

  • The platform menu has been relocated to the top-right corner, adjacent to the logged-in user information. From this location you can launch other platform modules and any 1E Solutions that are included with your license.
