Euladox ITAM Overview
Euladox ITAM is an enterprise application for IT operations consisting of very deep IT Asset Management functionality with an equally excellent Incident Management module.
Built modularly with Automated discovery of all IT Assets, Asset CMDB, Software inventory, License Management, Warranty & AMC, Consumables management, Contracts Management & Omni-Channel Incident Management.
Key Uses of Euladox ITAM
Euladox Architecture
Euladox ITAM Design Framework
Euladox follows the below best practice frameworks:
Hardware Asset Management: Combination of IAITAM, Gartner & ITIL Frameworks
Software Asset Management: Combination of IAITAM & Gartner frameworks
Incident Management: ITIL Framework
ITAM Process
Managers of IT Infrastructure constantly need exact information of the location, identity and configuration of IT assets (hardware & software). The data on contracts, warranties, support agreements, budgets also needs to be available to the IT managers.
The IT Asset Management process with an automated tool reduces the labor and errors associated to satisfy the above requirements.
Network Discovery
Discovery Satellite conducts Agentless discovery of all the assets in your enterprise network. The scan automatically provides visibility of all assets including software deployed information.
Euladox Discovery Satellite has the following key attributes that are crucial in building a good asset inventory database:
Key Attribute | Details |
---|---|
Native Deployment | Euladox does not depend on any 3rd party scanning software for collection of network inventory data. |
Multi-protocol Discovery | Euladox scans and discovers all networked devices – computers, network printers, routers, switches, etc. |
Multi-segment & Location Discovery | The discovery satellite works both in online and offline modes allowing discovery of every potential combination of network architectures. |
Native Adaptors | Active Directory, VMware, Hyper V, Xen Server, OVM, Oracle Technology Products, IBM MQ, DB2, MS SQL Server. |
Real Time Reporting | Discovery completed and error reports for monitoring and troubleshooting. |
Troubleshooting | Tools for troubleshooting access issues |
Agentless Discovery
Euladox has Agentless Discovery as well as Agent Based Discovery.
The preferred mode of discovery in Euladox is Agentless since it brings in agility and flexibility. Euladox Discovery Satellites’ Agentless Discovery does not require the installation of client software on any of the devices or systems in the network. This makes it easier to implement, faster to discovery and extremely scalable from the smallest to the largest end-point populations.
Euladox Discovery Satellite remotely gathers all the required data from devices and systems on the network.

Hardware Inventory
Hardware Catalogue & Asset Recognition
Most inventory scanning software provide raw data with scant information about the servers and desktops. This does not help in understanding the attached software licensing potential and risks. Hence Euladox has taken a very different approach to asset recognition.
Euladox has a very extensive hardware catalogue and contains all servers (Intel, AMD & RISC) manufactured after 2001, all virtualization technologies and hypervisor versions and all Windows, Linux, AIX, Solaris & HP-UX, MacOS versions.
This ensures error-less asset recognition leading to the capability of providing exact network asset distribution and software license deployed positions.
Centralized IT Inventory
The asset inventory database holds all the information of every single asset discovered in the network. Customers can view raw data of discovered devices or normalised information after asset recognition.
There are more than 50 reports and views to enable users to see specific information as desired. The system also offers multiple filters across all reports and views so that reports can be customised.
Asset Modelling
Assets that cannot be discovered or are not currently available in the hardware catalogue can be manually modelled. This enables customer to manage any kind of asset in the organisation.
Asset User Linkage
Automated and manual mapping of users to devices and systems. This ensures tracking asset ownership responsibility.
The asset-user linkage is key to providing better incident management and trouble ticket resolutions.
Contract Management
Eualadox has very extensive contract management functionality. The contract management module is described in detail in the Contract Management Section. Read Here.
Warranty & AMC
The contracts management module is completely integrated into the asset management module.
Customers can manage and track all Annual Maintenance Contracts in the system. Some of the facilities provided are:
- AMC Tracking for each asset
- AMC reminders through email notifications and alerts
Notifications and Alerts
Customers can configure email notification and system alerts for any event. For example, an email alert is needed for payment of AMC or for completing True-Up Negotiations etc.
Asset CMDB
The Asset CMDB is a key aspect of Euladox ITAM. There is a difference between an ITAM database and a CMDB. Euladox ITAM takes all the necessary relationships for an Asset as a CI and helps build up the dependancies. Customers can track changes made to the asset over a period of time.
