Complete visibility into your IT assets, dependencies and costs.
Manage the complete lifecycle of hardware and software assets, understand how your IT systems depend on one another, and create reports that answer your business questions — all in one connected platform. From procurement and employee assignments to licences, maintenance, depreciation and secure disposal, Kanishu ITAM helps you stay in control of technology investments.
The problem
You can't protect, renew or account for what you can't find
Assets live in spreadsheets, licences are over- or under-bought, and when an auditor asks where a disposed laptop's data went, the answer is a guess.
What changes with IT Asset Management
One register of everything you own
Assets and licences with who has them, warranties, service history and the full timeline from purchase to disposal.
Licence spend you can defend
Each licence's purchased and allocated seats are compared automatically — over-allocation and unused seats stand out.
Purchases that become assets
Requests, approval, quotation and purchase order; receiving the item creates the asset.
Disposal records for audit review
Data-wipe method, disposal vendor and destruction-certificate reference recorded for each data-bearing device.
Key capabilities
What IT Asset Management does across its plans. Availability and limits vary by plan — each capability below shows the plan it starts on, and the comparison lists every difference.

A CMDB with service mapping and an impact view — see what a failure affects
Software licence management with expiry alerts and seat-allocation checks
Depreciation schedules and total cost of ownership reporting

Questions
Can we bring our existing spreadsheet in?
Yes. A guided CSV import maps your columns; the whole file is checked first and imported all or nothing, so you never end up with half a file.
Can I buy just this product?
Yes. Every Kanishu product is sold and billed on its own. Start with one and add others later from the same account — no bundle.
Do the products share one sign-in?
Your team moves between the Kanishu products your organisation uses without signing in again. Each product keeps its own roles and permissions, and People keeps one directory of your staff for all of them.
What happens when we reach a plan limit?
Your admins get an email at 80% and again at 100% of a limit. Nothing is deleted: at the limit you can't add more until you free some up or upgrade, and the usage is shown on your My Plan page.
Do you issue GST invoices?
Yes — a GST tax invoice in rupees for every payment.
What support do you offer?
Support is by email, from inside the product (Contact Support) or by replying to our emails. We reply within 3 business days on every plan, and within 1 business day on plans that include priority support. Business days are Monday to Friday, 9:00 to 17:00 India time. We don't offer chat or phone support.
