CRC's UNIQUE ASSET AUDIT PROGRAMS
DATAVIEW AND DATATRAC
With over 14 years in Asset Audit and
Management, CRC have used their
considerable experience to develop a unique set of data gathering and
comparison tools. DataView answers the issue of managing asset data
from multiple sources across global infrastructures, whilst DataTrac
has the ability to build and maintain the IT asset database.
DataView captures data from every scanning tool and presents it back to
the business via the Internet or Intranet; and with its advanced
functionality, simplicity and agility, DataView will enable
organisations to have a world-class Asset Management service at the
fraction of the cost.
Using DataTrac clients can create their own baseline asset database,
verify existing assets and manage change control. This easy to use
application will integrate with Service Desk programs and ensure that
the data for the most important building block, the IT Asset database,
is up to date and reliable.
