HANOSYS / SOLUTIONSIT Asset Management (ITAM) Solutions
Make technology spending easier to understand and manage. HANOSYS helps organisations connect hardware inventories, software entitlements, SaaS subscriptions and cloud resource records with the processes needed to keep asset information useful.
OVERVIEWITAM Solutions for your business
A discovery tool can identify equipment and applications, but an accurate asset register also needs accountable owners, consistent data definitions and regular reconciliation. HANOSYS combines platform configuration with operational procedures so teams can maintain trustworthy records as technology changes.
Our approach links IT asset data with service management, purchasing and finance where appropriate. This helps organisations assess licence use, track equipment through its lifecycle and make more informed renewal and replacement decisions.

FAQFrequently asked questions
Can an existing ITSM platform handle asset management?
It may be sufficient for basic equipment tracking and CMDB-related needs. More complex software licensing environments can require specialist entitlement and usage analysis. We help assess the gap before recommending additional tools.
When might ITAM investment produce savings?
Timing and financial results vary with the existing data, software contracts and deployment scope. An initial assessment can identify opportunities such as unused subscriptions or overlapping applications, but savings should be validated rather than assumed.
Can ITAM improve readiness for software licence audits?
Yes. Consistent entitlement records, usage information and documented reconciliation procedures can make it easier to respond to licence reviews. They do not guarantee a particular audit result.
