Asset Management Suite discovers, inventories, and tracks all the hardware and software assets in your IT infrastructure through a CMDB. The CMDB manages assets’ hierarchical relationships to other configuration items, users, locations, departments, cost centers, and associated contracts. This information gives you credible information on the location and license status of every important OS, virtualization platform, or application instance. With this detailed, up-to-date information, your team can quickly identify problems, apply solutions, and document compliance.
Symantec Asset Management Suite was previously known as Symantec Altiris Asset Management Suite.

| Team Lead at a computer software company with 10,001+ employees | 4.0 | I find Symantec Asset Management Suite stable and feature-rich for on-premise patch management in medium organizations. However, it's outdated, lacks innovation, integrates poorly with Microsoft solutions, and its cost is now high. |
