Inventory Audits and Asset Tracking

WMImonitor can help you track everything that happens with your computer assets. Every time software is installed or uninstalled, or some hardware configuration is changed, WMImonitor will generate alerts for you. These alerts can be sent to an email account or just viewed through a web based interface.

• The WMI Agent is transferred to the client and installed through the execution of an installer application, which can be sent as an email attachment or called from a login script.

• An on screen entry form sent to each PC for the user to complete identifies the elements that no network management tool can tell you such as the user name, department and the physical location.

• Non intrusive data collection that will not effect performance of the PC.

Data Collections

WMImonitor collects a comprehensive range of asset data and outstrips the detailed content of most other network management tools.

• BIOS information, such as machine manufacturer, model and serial, machine name and domain (or workgroup)

• Processor type, model and speed, motherboard, RAM memory size

• Drives with their names, types, sizes and free space, Video adapter and monitor names

• Operating System type, version, service pack and build number

• Installed software

Operating Environment of WMImonitor

WMImonitor may be installed on your local server. The system maintenance is easy and simple, as only the server gets updated or modified. Even when you chose to upgrade the local computer agents, this update process is automatically handled by the server.

The system works as a client-server application: there is a server-side component called WMI Server, and a client-side component, called WMI Client (or WMI Agent).

The data that is collected and passed back to WMI Server is encrypted and compressed utilizing TCP/IP. This provides an efficient use of network resources, ensuring that the network does not get overloaded with WMI data packets. All client server communications use the encrypted data stream so it is very difficult for someone to eavesdrop on the transferred data, or try to fake a communication to the server. Making it safe to use even as an ASP service across the Internet 

Reporting

Whenever you have to plan a hardware or software upgrade, or when you have to manage assets in your company, you can use WMImonitor to build flexible reports on all of the collected data. For example, you can build a customized report based on the hardware capabilities to show you which computers must be upgraded so that you can install a new OS version.

There are a number of built-in reports such as the inactive machines report, which lists all machines that have not made connections to the WMImonitor server for longer than a specified period of time.

The report generator has a user friendly interface to build customized reports quickly and easily. It allows for customized filters and allows these to be modified to narrow down the results further by applying new filters to the results set. These report definitions may be saved for later retrieval.
