Certero for Enterprise ITAM
Certero for Enterprise ITAM · Warrington, United Kingdom · founded 2007
What it is
Certero for Enterprise ITAM, through CerteroX ITAM, discovers and inventories technology assets across platforms in a shared system record. It uses ten discovery methods, including native-agent, agentless, and standalone inventory, network scans, Active Directory imports, cloud connectors, browser monitoring, and file metering. The native agent supports Windows, macOS, Linux, IBM AIX, HP-UX, and Solaris. Inventory controls include non-persistent VDI support, duplicate detection, stale-device archiving, and collection from air-gapped or offline systems. Asset management includes warranty tracking, costing rules, dashboards, KPIs, threshold alerts, and custom groups created with a query builder or SQL. Device management covers software distribution, Windows 11 upgrade orchestration, WSUS-integrated patching, and mobile device management for iOS and Android, including Apple DEP. Named connectors include Active Directory, Microsoft SCCM, Intune, WSUS, VMware, Hyper-V, AWS, Azure, and Cisco Meraki. Certero describes a read-only API and documented Power BI data source. Governance includes policies, data-segmentation zones, reporting levels, and granular role-based access. Deployment is hybrid with employee self-service. Pricing is not published; Certero offers demos and quotes.
