Step 4 – Acquire the data

Last updated: December 1, 2021

Base your IT concepts on comprehensive inventory data

After obtaining the inventory data of your IT systems in step three, now your personal knowledge is sought after. The task is to document the information which cannot be retrieved directly from the IT systems, i.e. the relations and dependencies existing in your network. Benefit from a powerful feature of the premium Docusnap documentation tool and define functional relations for your IT systems. These so-called IT relations enable you to get an easy overview of the technical dependencies. The graphical visualization will convince you that it was worth all the effort.

Optimum password container

Benefit from the encrypted password container in the Docusnap database to document all your passwords at a central location. You can assign the passwords for each system and application to the respective IT services. This way, you can be sure that this information will not be spied out. Thanks to the encryption, the data is not only protected in its saved version, but also when it is transmitted to your computer.

Proceed with license management by entering the information you collected into the Docusnap database. This provides the basis for later comparisons.
