Businesses grapple with many intricate challenges in IT asset management and IT security. Keeping track of an extensive array of hardware, software, and network devices becomes complex in environments with cloud-based and on-premises assets. On the IT security front, the relentless evolution of threats such as malware and ransomware requires constant vigilance, proactive defense strategies, and regular updates and patches to secure software.

The growing prevalence of remote and mobile workforces, compounded by Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) policies, introduces additional complexities in asset management and security. Meanwhile, IT teams must comply with data privacy laws like GDPR and HIPAA while navigating increasingly complex software licensing models. 

Integrating IT asset management with infrastructure and security monitoring presents a unified approach to address many challenges effectively. By combining these functions, businesses can gain a holistic view of their IT infrastructure for complete visibility and better control over physical and software assets. Real-time tracking of asset performance and security status becomes possible, helping teams streamline patch management and remediate any vulnerabilities quickly.

With these potential benefits in mind, SenHub has partnered with Lansweeper to create a unique integration that brings together Lansweeper’s market-leading IT asset discovery and recognition capabilities with infrastructure monitoring tools via SenHub and its library of cloud connectors.

A Dynamic Duo for Monitoring IT Assets

First, let’s learn what each solution contributes to the integration:

  • Lansweeper is a powerful IT asset discovery and inventory platform that organizations use to discover and recognize all of their technology assets – servers, laptops, desktops, virtual machines, operating systems, software, IoT, and OT – and create an always-accurate, up-to-date inventory containing detailed asset data. Lansweeper data can fuel any IT scenario, from IT and software asset management (ITAM and SAM) to IT security, service desk, asset lifecycle management, software license management, business intelligence, and more. No matter what IT scenario, the data is accurate and ready to use.
  • SenHub is designed to extend the capability of infrastructure monitoring tools by providing rich and powerful connectors to many cloud providers. Through its connectors, SenHub delivers missing metrics in your chosen monitoring tool. With the shortest possible data collection times, secure data storage, and availability, SenHub provides no-compromise monitoring.

Working with Lansweeper, SenHub has developed a connector now available on Lansweeper’s Marketplace, which offers a range of extensions and integrations designed to enhance and customize the functionality of the Lansweeper platform. Using the SenHub connector, Lansweeper users can populate their monitoring tool with the most comprehensive, up-to-date IT asset data in the same format and structure as Lansweeper dashboards. As a result, users have a familiar experience as they interact with their IT asset data while taking advantage of the extended features of SenHub.

Why Connect Lansweeper with Your Monitoring Tool

By combining Lansweeper’s powerful IT discovery capabilities with SenHub, the new integration delivers:

  • Enhanced real-time IT asset monitoring: Real-time data from Lansweeper significantly enhances the capabilities of monitoring tools by providing instant and up-to-date insights into the entire IT environment. Teams can track networked devices and software continuously, gaining immediate visibility into system changes, installations, and hardware modifications. Such timely information is crucial for identifying potential issues before they escalate and maintaining optimal system performance.

  • Proactive IT security alerting: Access to Lansweeper data significantly bolsters IT security by providing visibility into all network-connected devices and software. IT teams can identify unsecured or unauthorized devices and applications at a glance and eliminate vulnerabilities by promptly applying security patches and updates. By enabling teams to monitor changes in their IT environment, SenHub’s connector for Lansweeper helps organizations detect potential security breaches early and strengthen their IT security posture.
  • Compliance and risk management: With detailed, up-to-date information on all networked assets, businesses gain a clear understanding of their IT landscape. This comprehensive visibility is crucial for maintaining compliance with various industry standards and regulatory requirements. Access to Lansweeper data helps teams identify outdated software and unauthorized devices to proactively address those risks, implement necessary security measures, and mitigate a breach’s potential legal and financial repercussions.
  • Comprehensive visibility into all IT assets: By integrating complete IT asset inventory data with real-time operational data, IT teams gain a more holistic view of their company’s technology landscape. They can track their assets’ performance, health, and utilization and understand their performance under various conditions.

  • Improved decision-making: Access to Lansweeper data through SenHub significantly enhances decision-making with comprehensive insights that help teams improve asset utilization, lifecycle management, and procurement, leading to optimized resource allocation and cost savings. Organizations can anticipate future needs, plan upgrades, and avoid potential bottlenecks or failures by analyzing trends and patterns in asset performance and usage. 

“Whether examining the overall state of the infrastructure, managing or monitoring IT assets, or evaluating inventory health, users will find continuity in their experience,” said Matthieu Noirbusson, Co-founder and Associate Director of Senhub. “With this integration, they benefit from having consolidated data within their preferred IT supervision tool, without having to write any code.”
