Currently present in more than 60 countries – and with renowned companies such as the U.S. Army, Collins Aerospace, NASA, PWC, and Toyota as clients – InvGate provides two stand-alone though highly integrated products: an ITSM (IT Service Management) and ITAM (IT Asset Management) solution.

These capabilities are essential for enhancing security by ensuring that all devices within an organization’s network are uniformly updated and protected against vulnerabilities.
