Today, IT departments and Managed Service Providers (MSPs) face increasingly complex environments. The number of connected devices, SaaS applications, software licenses, and servers is growing at a rapid pace, making IT Asset Management (ITAM) a critical pillar for ensuring security, performance, and regulatory compliance.
According to various industry studies, more than 70% of companies admit they do not have an up-to-date inventory of their digital assets. This not only creates inefficiencies but also introduces security risks: unpatched systems, outdated software, or unknown devices that can become entry points for cyberattacks. For MSPs, the challenge is even greater: they must simultaneously manage the infrastructure of multiple clients, each with its own technologies and needs. In this context, tools like Lansweeper become a strategic ally for transforming the way MSPs manage, protect, and optimize their clients’ IT environments.
Lansweeper is an advanced IT Asset Management (ITAM) platform that allows automatic discovery, inventory, and auditing of all IT assets within an organization. Its main differentiator is that it can detect devices without requiring agent installation, significantly simplifying deployment.
With Lansweeper, an MSP can detect all devices connected to a network (PCs, servers, printers, routers, IoT), audit installed software and licenses, identify vulnerabilities in configurations or outdated versions, generate complete inventory and compliance reports, and integrate this information with other platforms such as cybersecurity tools, RMMs, or PSAs.
An MSP using Lansweeper not only improves its own operational efficiency but also multiplies the value delivered to its clients. They gain centralized and real-time visibility, reduce security risks by proactively addressing vulnerabilities, and help optimize costs by identifying duplicate licenses or unused hardware. Lansweeper also simplifies compliance by generating automatic reports aligned with regulations such as GDPR, HIPAA, or ISO 27001. Scalability is another key benefit: as the MSP adds more clients, Lansweeper integrates their infrastructure seamlessly without increasing complexity.
Use cases are diverse. From recurring IT audits to software license management, technology lifecycle planning, security integrations, and onboarding new clients, Lansweeper proves to be an indispensable tool. For example, when onboarding a new client, an MSP can discover the entire IT environment within hours, accelerating the delivery of services.
The difference between a reseller and an MSP using Lansweeper is clear. While a reseller may simply sell the license and leave responsibility to the client’s internal IT team, an MSP goes much further: continuously monitoring assets, providing regular reports on risks and improvements, and acting as a strategic partner rather than just a provider. This marks the difference between a transactional relationship and a long-term trust-based partnership.
In a market where clients demand tangible results, MSPs that leverage Lansweeper can stand out by offering transparency through clear and detailed reports, proactivity by detecting problems before they impact business operations, strategic value by recommending decisions based on real data, and complementary services such as consulting, training, and technical support.
The success of an MSP largely depends on its ability to deliver high-value services. And one of the most critical today is IT Asset Management. With Lansweeper, MSPs can transform how they manage client infrastructure: more visibility, more security, more cost savings, and stronger compliance. This not only strengthens relationships with current clients but also opens the door to new business opportunities.
