A sprawling, unmanaged application portfolio can complicate your IT asset management (ITAM) efforts. Without the right tools and processes, it’s hard to know where your applications live, who uses them, and how much you’re paying for everything. This lack of visibility can create significant complexities—especially if your organization is growing rapidly. The faster your application portfolio grows, the harder it is to track and manage.
Without clear visibility, it also becomes easy for technical debt to accumulate as your assets age and quick fixes pile up. Outdated applications will continue to consume resources, even if no one uses them. These ghost assets can haunt your balance sheets and impact your ITAM success.
