How are you managing your IT assets? 
No, they don't manage themselves...yet.

Once your PC is out of the box your management job is just beginning.  There are software and printers to install.  Security updates to schedule.  Patches and bug fixes to be applied.  Software licenses to keep track of as well as the computer hardware configuration.  Ad hoc methods invariably break-down due to lack of attention.  You need to use proper systems management tools to support what you've got and to keep you informed. 

Networked PCs and laptops can be hardware and software inventoried.  Licensed programs can be tracked for actual use.  Applications can be centrally installed, uninstalled or repaired.  Directory-enabled policies can limit user control over the PC or laptop.  Remote control allows you to quickly take over a PC or laptop to better support the user. 

The typical remedy for a badly messed-up PC is to manually re-install the operating system and applications.  Easy to say...hard to do.  It is a tedious and time-consuming proposition that requires you to locate everything you need in order to re-build the system.  PC imaging and PC virtualization products can eliminate the terror when a system won't boot or becomes unusable due to frequent lock-ups or crashes. 

Good computer management practices save money, time and aggravation!  What are yours?
