Computer Asset Tracking Spreadsheet

You will face five major headaches if you don’t properly track the age and warranty status of your computing assets:

• Lack of parts when critical hardware fail 
• Security vulnerabilities due to outdated firmware 
• Compatibility issues with newer versions of software or hardware peripherals 
• Difficulty when upgrading to supported operating systems 
• Increased cost of servicing outdated devices 

The solution is to get ahead of the problem and start tracking all your assets in a spreadsheet or in some sort of asset tracking software.
