Absolute Software Unveils New Cross-Platform IT Asset Management Solution
Absolute Manage enables organizations to easily manage PC, Mac and iPhone devices from a single interface

 
The Absolute® Software announced today the launch of Absolute Manage, the rebranded version of the Company's recently-acquired cross-platform IT asset management solution. The new solution from Absolute complements its Computrace® family of data security, tracking and theft recovery solutions with full-featured computer lifecycle management capabilities.
 
Absolute Manage, formerly LANrev, provides organizations with an easy and automated way to manage PC and Mac® computers, as well as iPhone® devices, from a single interface. IT administrators using Absolute Manage can efficiently manage all their assets by automating time-consuming IT processes such as software distribution, patch management, asset inventory and imaging. Additionally, it helps organizations save money by allowing them to track installed applications and licenses, redeploy under-used licenses and hardware to maximize inventory, and avoid non-compliance fines.
Some of the capabilities of Absolute Manage include the following:
  • Application & License Management – Deploy software and manage licenses across the network.
  • Security, Change & Configuration Management – Remotely monitor and adjust configurations, and execute files.
  • Automated Patch Management – Centrally manage and install patches, and report on patch status for all managed systems.
  • Computer Imaging - Install a complete OS plus all standard applications onto Mac computers while in use or just out of the box.
  • Power Management – Comply with green initiatives and lower total cost of ownership by remotely enforcing power saving policy profiles.
  • Asset Inventory – Collect hardware and software data points from devices over the network and analyze the information for timely and fact-based asset management decisions.

According to a survey conducted by the Enterprise Desktop Alliance, 91% of the IT administrators surveyed indicated that integration and management parity between Macs and PCs were issues of major importance to their organization.* "IT administrators shouldn't have to juggle multiple tools that work on one platform but not the other," said Stephen Midgley, vice president of Global Marketing at Absolute Software. "The proven cross-platform capabilities of Absolute Manage ensure that IT administrators can effectively and efficiently manage both their Macs and PCs, and reduce associated costs."
