ITAM and DEX: The New Era of IT Asset Management Is Shaping the Future of Business

IT asset management is no longer just about keeping inventory. 
In today’s world, where digital is the new workplace, ITAM (IT Asset Management) has become a strategic pillar for companies seeking efficiency, security, and compliance. 

More than managing hardware and software, this new generation of ITAM is directly connected to the Digital Employee Experience (DEX), positioning IT as a true competitive advantage. 

“Visibility isn’t just important in IT asset management — it’s fundamental. You can’t manage, control, or improve what you can’t see.”

Leandro Silva, CEO of Almaden

There’s no efficiency without visibility

 DEX — Digital Employee Experience — reflects how employees interact with technology in their daily work. 
If a laptop is slow, a system crashes, or the VPN fails, it’s not just a technical problem — it’s a drop in productivity, engagement, and employee satisfaction. 

DEX

With integrated ITAM and DEX management, IT teams gain proactive visibility to anticipate problems, optimise resources, and ensure seamless digital workflows. 

While ITAM captures data from endpoints, DEX turns that information into intuitive dashboards, enabling faster, more informed decision-making. 

DEX

For example, if IT knows that 30% of employees aren’t using a specific software, or that certain devices are underperforming, they can act before it becomes a support ticket. 

This data- and experience-driven approach transforms IT from a reactive firefighter into a strategic business partner. 

Benefits of Integrating ITAM and DEX
