Complete Digital Asset Visibility with Optimal360
Optimal delivers advanced Software and Device Discovery through our intelligent asset management platform, Optimal360, in line with ISO14224 standards. It provides automated, continuous discovery across IT, OT and hybrid environments, creating a live, structured view of your entire digital asset estate.
Unidentified devices, unmanaged software and incomplete asset registers create risk, inefficiency and compliance exposure. Optimal360 establishes a trusted, accurate foundation for governance, optimisation and performance improvement.
Automated Device Discovery – Software and Device Discovery
Optimal360 continuously identifies and maps:
- Servers, virtual machines and endpoints
- Network infrastructure and IP assets
- Industrial control systems and operational technology
- Cloud-hosted resources and hybrid environments
- Interdependencies between systems and applications
This creates a living, dynamic asset inventory rather than a static register.
Intelligent Software Discovery & Licence Insight – Software and Device Discovery
Through structured software discovery, Optimal360 provides:
- Installed software identification and version tracking
- Licence utilisation visibility
- Vendor normalisation and classification
- End-of-life and unsupported software alerts
- Audit-ready reporting
This enables proactive Software Asset Management, cost control and compliance assurance.
A Living CMDB and Structured Asset Intelligence – Software and Device Discovery
Optimal360 transforms discovery data into structured intelligence by:
- Normalising and cleansing asset data
- Mapping dependencies between infrastructure and applications
- Maintaining a live Configuration Management Database
- Integrating with EAM and CMMS platforms
- Supporting ISO55001-aligned governance frameworks
The result is a single source of truth for digital assets.
Enabling Predictive and Prescriptive Insight – Software and Device Discovery
With structured discovery data in place, organisations can:
- Identify performance risks before failure
- Detect configuration drift and compliance gaps
- Improve capacity planning and lifecycle forecasting
- Support predictive and prescriptive maintenance strategies
- Strengthen cybersecurity posture
Optimal360 connects digital asset visibility directly to operational performance.
Supporting Operational Readiness & Transformation – Software and Device Discovery
For organisations modernising infrastructure or transitioning from project to operations, Optimal360 supports:
- Baseline asset validation
- Data readiness prior to go-live
- Integration with structured models such as RDS-PP
- Dashboard-driven performance monitoring
Discovery becomes the foundation for long-term asset performance and governance.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is Software & Device Discovery?
Software & Device Discovery is the process of identifying all devices and installed software across IT, OT and hybrid environments to establish a complete, accurate asset inventory.
What problems does discovery solve?
Discovery highlights unmanaged devices, shadow IT, missing licences, inaccurate CMDB records and blind spots that create compliance, security and operational risk.
How does Optimal360 support discovery?
Optimal360 automates discovery, continuously updating a live inventory of devices, software installs, versions and dependencies across on-premise, cloud and hybrid environments.
What is a living CMDB?
A living CMDB is a dynamic configuration management database that automatically updates as new assets are detected or existing assets change, supporting accurate governance and analysis.
How does discovery support optimisation and compliance?
Discovery data feeds into software asset management, licence optimisation, audit readiness, cybersecurity posture and predictive analytics, strengthening control and reducing cost.
Why Optimal?
We combine asset management expertise with digital intelligence capability. Our discovery services are not standalone IT exercises; they form part of a wider performance, reliability and governance strategy.
