Assets view (New)
Use the Assets view to monitor assets efficiently with filters, searches, and actions. Visualizations, charts, and tables simplify asset tracking and make it easier to find devices and assets. The view helps you spot patterns, trends, and anomalies, revealing opportunities, risks, and areas for improvement. While it's primarily built for help desk technicians, anyone who needs to manage or find assets can use it.
