Software Discovery and Tracking That Stays Current
Spend Less Time Updating Records
Bring installed software from managed endpoints and integrations into one inventory, so IT spends less time collecting exports and updating records by hand.
Find Hidden Software in Your Stack
Surface browser and SaaS apps that may not be in the catalog yet, helping IT review adoption, ownership, approval status, and the right next step.
Build Reports on Cleaner Records
Groups related software entries into standardized records, making inventory searches, license reviews, and reports clearer and more reliable.
Investigate Apps With More Context
Bring user, device, license, usage, and history details together, giving IT more context before investigating an app, changing access, or following up.
Review Renewals With Usage Data
AssetSonar shows which supported apps are active, idle, or rarely used, helping IT review assigned seats and make renewal decisions based on current activity data.
Keep Software Inventory Current
Scheduled syncs and agent updates capture installs, removals, and other changes over time, helping IT keep its software inventory current without another spreadsheet.

Automated Discovery Agent
Get One View of Installed Software
When software is installed, removed, or updated, static exports fall behind. AssetSonar’s ITAM Agent scans Windows, macOS, and Linux endpoints where deployed, while connected device-management sources add coverage where supported. IT can review installations, versions, discovery sources, and last-seen details without rebuilding records after every change.
SaaS & Browser Discovery
See the Apps Users Find on Their Own
Employees adopt cloud apps before they ask IT. AssetSonar brings SaaS, identity, and browser activity into one software view through supported integrations and Browser Tracking. IT can review apps that are not yet cataloged or classified, see who accessed them and when they last appeared, then decide whether they need approval, restriction, or follow-up.
Software Normalization
Turn Messy Entries Into One Record
One application can arrive under several names, versions, and source formats, making counts unreliable. AssetSonar recommends catalog matches so IT can review and group related instances under a standard record while preserving version detail. The result is easier to search, connect to licenses, and use in reports without reconciling each variation by hand.
Usage & Metering Insights
Know What Gets Used Before Renewal
An installation does not show whether anyone still uses the software. With Software Usage Metering enabled, AssetSonar combines the ITAM Agent, Activity Tracker, and browser data to show usage by app, member, and device. IT can spot idle software, review seats, and prepare early for renewals using evidence instead of guesswork.
IT Graph Context
Track Software Across Connected Records
A software record is more useful with related context. AssetSonar’s IT Graph provides a consolidated view of connected IT records and links software with available user, device, license, ticket, and history data. IT teams can review who and what an application affects before acting and keep discovery connected to the wider IT environment instead of an isolated list.
SaaS License Integrations
Connect Discovery to License Decisions
Discovery finds the app. License data informs the next step. AssetSonar brings entitlement, renewal, and usage data from supported SaaS integrations into the related software record. IT can compare assigned seats with available activity, flag licenses for review, and approach renewals with clearer context before reassigning, downgrading, or removing access.

Frequently Asked Questions
Implementation time depends on the endpoint count, operating systems, and the selected discovery sources. AssetSonar supports manual installation and mass deployment on Windows, macOS, and Linux, as well as endpoint management integrations. A typical rollout includes network whitelisting, deploying the agent or connectors, and validating the discovered records before expanding coverage.
AssetSonar integrates with Microsoft Intune, Jamf Pro, Kandji, Microsoft SCCM, Apple Business Manager, Google Endpoint Management, JumpCloud, Cisco Meraki, Mosyle Manager, Open-AudIT, and Workspace ONE. These connections bring endpoint and discovery data into AssetSonar, where supported software details can be reviewed alongside device records.
Yes. Once the ITAM Agent is installed and can connect to AssetSonar, it can sync installed software data from supported Windows, macOS, and Linux endpoints outside the office network. Endpoint management integrations can also import device data into AssetSonar. This helps IT maintain visibility across remote and hybrid fleets without relying on devices being connected to one local network.
AssetSonar supports browser-based shadow IT discovery through extensions for Google Chrome and Firefox. The extension captures supported web application activity so IT can identify cloud tools that may not appear in installed software data. This gives teams a clearer view of SaaS adoption and unapproved applications across supported browsers.
AssetSonar is SOC 2 Type 2 compliant and ISO/IEC 27001 certified. Custom roles let administrators control who can view, create, update, detect, reconcile, assign, or manage software and license records. This helps protect sensitive inventory and licensing data while allowing approved users or auditors to access only the information they need.
AssetSonar supports software audit preparation by consolidating discovered software, versions, entitlements, usage, renewals, and license assignments into a single system. Teams can create custom reports, export them as CSV, XLS, or PDF files, and give auditors view-only access through custom roles. This makes it easier to gather evidence without allowing reviewers to change records.
AssetSonar supports mass deployment, endpoint-management integrations, and location and group structures for distributed environments. Volume pricing is available for organizations managing 1,000 or more assets. This allows IT teams to roll out discovery across offices and remote fleets while organizing software records by the groups and locations relevant to their operations.
AssetSonar provides a 14-day guided setup and managed implementation. Its knowledge base covers account configuration, agent deployment, endpoint manager connections, software discovery, normalization, usage tracking, reporting, and auditing. Users can also reach the support team through in-app chat and the support portal for assistance during setup and ongoing use.
