IT Asset Management (ITAM)

Empowering IT Asset Management (ITAM) on ServiceNow

Problem

ServiceNow, while a robust platform for IT Asset Management (ITAM), lacks native capabilities for barcode and QR code generation. For organizations that need to efficiently label and track their IT assets, this absence creates workflow inefficiencies, complicates asset labeling, and can lead to manual tracking methods that are error-prone and time-consuming. Without native support, ITAM practitioners face challenges in asset identification, inventory audits, and quick retrieval of asset data.
