Getting Started with IT Asset Requests

IT Asset Requests enables IT managers to enforce continual software license compliance and control software deployment, while increasing employee satisfaction and the efficiency of software delivery. The enterprise app store ensures that governance is in place to check license availability and consistent software delivery.

Employees can request software from the IT Asset Requests end user self-service portal and employees experience a native, modern user interface. IT Asset Requests leverages asset management data from IT Asset Management, including product use rights, to ensure proper governance and compliance over requests and installation of software via deployment systems.
