I use Universal Discovery and Universal CMDB for two main tasks: first, to discover what is happening in our IT system, like finding out what devices and software we have. Then, we use Universal CMDB to check if this matches what we should have, based on our plans and asset management. This helps us find and fix any differences, making sure our IT setup matches our intentions.

In our environment earlier all assets were managed through Excel (manually). We have now transformed from this to auto IT Assets Management. Now we have the insight of the Node their relation and dependencies map in a proper manner. It is a great tool for auto asset discovery.

We primarily use the solution for network and server discovery. It's agent-based discovery. Also, we have integration with OBM for CMS to RTSM CMS integration and with NNMI to UCMDB integration.

We are currently using it for discovery, to inform our event management system. We are not using it for configuration management at this point. We are only using it to inform our event management suite, so we know what asset had the issue.
