The key benefits of IT Asset Discovery & Inventory with Raynet One
IT Asset Discovery & Inventory – full control right from the start
Successful IT initiatives rely on complete, high-quality data. Regular, automated IT Asset Discovery and Inventory is therefore essential to ensure long-term security and compliance.
The increasing use of cloud services and remote working is making today’s IT environments more complex and increasing the risk of transparency gaps. With Raynet One, you can close these gaps: the platform supports both agentless and agent-based discovery and, in addition to classic hardware and software, also captures SaaS applications and non-IT assets. This creates a single source of truth for your entire IT landscape in no time at all.
What’s more, Raynet One goes beyond mere inventory management: Patch and Release Management are directly integrated, ensuring that your asset data is not only visible but also up to date and secure at all times. The result: informed decisions, fewer risks and a future-proof IT strategy.

Create transparency
Get a complete overview of your entire IT landscape with flexible, agentless or agent-based scanning methods – regardless of location, device type or network status.

Improve data quality
Break down data silos and create a single source of truth. This will improve the quality of your IT asset data and make it available to global teams for informed decision-making.
Increase IT security
Ensure that every asset is known, monitored and managed – to minimise risks early on, close security gaps and meet compliance requirements
From SAM to IT Visibility: How a global corporation made transparency a priority
A leading global sporting goods manufacturer relied on Raynet One‘s powerful technologies to modernize its Software Asset Management (SAM) and achieve complete transparency across its entire IT infrastructure.
The project established the so-called “Big Picture”, which gave all stakeholders a clear, consolidated view of hardware and software assets. This transparency led to IT visibility being established as a governance priority at board level for the first time – a decisive step for sustainable IT strategy and compliance.
“Thanks to Raynet, we have not only gained transparency, but also laid the foundation for making strategic decisions quickly and based on data.”– Head of IT, leading sporting goods manufacturer

IT Asset Discovery & Inventory with Raynet One for maximum security and compliance
IT Asset Discovery & Inventory is the key to optimising asset management and strengthening IT security. Only when all IT assets are accurately recorded and visible can risks be minimised, compliance ensured and costs optimised. Raynet One automates the collection of critical IT asset data – regardless of whether your infrastructure is centralised, distributed or hybrid.
The platform offers comprehensive hardware detection and software inventory, covering all relevant scenarios. With the help of flexible technologies – agent-based, remote, portable or zero touch – as well as ready-to-use connectors for SaaS, PaaS, IaaS and cloud, you get a complete view of your IT landscape at all times. Classic clients, servers, physical host systems, cloud environments, databases and even IoT devices are reliably detected and made transparent.
Best practice: Companies usually start without agents, performing a quick network scan, integrating Active Directory or SaaS connectors, and gradually expanding their inventory to create a company-wide ‘single source of truth’.
Without structured IT asset discovery and inventory, organisations risk blind spots and shadow IT. Outdated software and undiscovered devices can quickly lead to security gaps, compliance violations and unnecessary costs. With Raynet One, you can close these gaps permanently – and create a central, reliable basis for informed IT decisions, governance and efficiency.
More than 200 SaaS and cloud connectors for maximum IT transparency
Raynet One enables the automatic integration and connection of over 200 SaaS and cloud systems – from Microsoft 365, Azure and AWS to ServiceNow, Zoom and Dropbox. This provides you with the basis for strategic, data-driven decisions and a centralised view of your entire IT landscape.
Thanks to modern Push and Pull Technology, access is fast and seamless. Your data can be efficiently integrated into other IT systems, allowing you to exploit its full potential – for greater business agility and better governance.
By optimising IT Asset Discovery and Inventory, Raynet One ensures that all assets are consolidated, up to date and securely managed. This allows you to simultaneously increase efficiency, IT security and compliance in your organisation.
