How accurate is your device inventory sheet? Do the devices in your inventory list match the devices that you actually have in the storage closet? When was the last time you audited your IT assets? 

According to Gartner, 50% of organizations have incomplete or inaccurate IT asset data, largely due to outdated, manual processes like spreadsheets. Inaccurate IT asset data gives your IT Asset Management (ITAM) program a weak foundation, which leads to issues like financial losses and security issues down the line. 

We are not here to judge, but we have witnessed these negative effects on our clients before they began using Teqtivity. Below, we share how Teqtivity empowers IT teams with accurate asset data to succeed in their IT operations:

Centralized, Real-Time Inventory Tracking

You can’t manage what you can’t see, and spreadsheets have a limited and static view of all of your IT assets. With Teqtivity, IT teams gain real-time visibility into every asset across locations, users, and stages of the lifecycle. 

What Teqtivity Users Get:

  • A single dashboard to view current asset status and user assignments
  • Automated updates when devices are assigned or deployed
  • Bulk uploads for quick onboarding of new inventory
  • Integration with HR and procurement tools to keep data synced across systems

As a result, our users don’t have to dig through multiple documents for the data they need, allowing them to focus on other initiatives.

Detailed Lifecycle Management At Every Stage

Most organizations’ lifecycle management is reactive; they’re either not planning device refreshes ahead of time or getting caught in emergency replacements. Both add up expenses. 

In turn, Teqtivity gives IT teams a full view of each asset’s journey from procurement to disposal.

What Our Users Can Do:

  • Track aging devices and plan refresh cycles before breakdowns happen
  • Identify underused assets that can be redeployed instead of buying new ones
  • Manage end-of-life securely and integrate with IT asset disposition vendors

As a result, no assets slip through the cracks, and teams keep accurate records of their inventory. With accurate inventory records, IT Directors or finance teams can cut unnecessary costs and better allocate funds.

Forecasting Future Needs Based on Data

One of the main reasons it is essential to keep accurate asset records is to plan ahead for future needs. IT leaders need clean and accurate asset data in order to make budget and inventory decisions. Teqtivity’s built-in and customizable reports provide just that. 

Examples of What Our Reports Can Capture: 

  • Identify usage trends across departments and locations
  • Predict hardware needs for hiring plans 
  • Track the depreciated value for financial planning
  • Track total losses from unreturned and lost devices

With clear insight into your environment, you can plan for what’s next, not just react to what’s now.
