Compared to using spreadsheets, Asset Management Software (if implemented correctly) will deliver the following;
An accurate asset register: You'll know the status, location, and user of all your assets
A relationship between your assets: Visibility of asset interdependencies will give you a framework to control and improve your asset management processes
Alerts and reports on your asset management: Giving you data-based facts about your assets
To take quick operational decisions, businesses typically lack trustworthy data and there is more reliance on gut-based operational decisions. With an asset management system, you can make quick decisions using both good data and your gut.
Data-based decisions quite often get buy-in from all levels of the organisation - helping asset managers to implement their operational decisions effectively.
