The Most Powerful AD Management Tool

Centralized・Real-time・Automated

Background Needs

Business environment in Taiwan is dominated by SMEs, which face relatively high operational challenges. The market competition is increasingly fierce, with large enterprises having abundant resources, putting immense pressure on SMEs.
Therefore, SMEs need to continuously innovate and improve product quality to maintain competitiveness. The challenges faced during the innovation process include a shortage of human resources, insufficient funds to retain talent, and lagging technological capabilities. Additionally, risk management and crisis response awareness are relatively weak, resulting in low resilience against market changes and economic fluctuations.

Current Issues

Existing issues faced by management personnel, accounts, and devices:

  • Using multiple platforms simultaneously:Most SMEs use different platform services for managing personnel, accounts, and devices, which is inconvenient for HR and technical staff. Each platform has different interfaces and user experiences, making operations cumbersome and requiring the memorization of numerous details.

  • Stuck in traditional form-based maintenance:Due to relatively weak technical capabilities, some management practices still rely on form records and transmission, posing high risks for team collaboration, such as inconsistencies in shared editing, file overwrites, and accidental deletions.

  • Lack of data inspection and management tools:The most critical part of the management process is the presentation of data reports and cross-analysis results. However, few SMEs have the capability and resources for this, leading to ineffective management and difficulty in determining whether decision-making directions are correct.

Simplify to Amplify: A Mindset for Achieving Impactful Results

Amplify Results, Seamless Business Expansion, Creating Infinite Possibilities for SMEs

In today's rapidly developing information-driven business environment, SMEs face numerous challenges, particularly in IT management. Due to limited resources, most SMEs often lack dedicated IT departments to support complex technical needs. As businesses expand, they often need to introduce various business tools such as Microsoft 365, Google Workspace, Adobe, and Splashtop to enhance efficiency and market competitiveness. However, managing multiple accounts and licenses required for these tools can be a technical and time burden for SMEs without professional IT support.

Moreover, the requirements for cybersecurity and compliance have become increasingly complex with stricter regulations, posing significant challenges for SMEs with weak technical foundations. Personnel changes, especially onboarding and offboarding employees, also add extra pressure on IT resource management. If these challenges are not properly addressed, they could severely impact the operational efficiency and information security of the business.

Application Scenarios

Scenario 1: Employee Onboarding

On the first day of a new employee's onboarding, HR can use iSME to create a new account for the employee and assign company authorizations simultaneously. When distributing OA devices, the computer can be directly managed, adhering to security regulations and company policies with one click. Even without an IT background, iSME handles all professional tasks, replacing the previous cumbersome steps of separately logging into multiple platforms for record-keeping, settings, and authorizations, ensuring a smooth process.

Scenario 2: Asset Management

An enterprise with multiple offices in different locations often faces many inconveniences in asset management. The most common management method is manual form registration by colleagues in each office, recording each asset. Due to frequent changes in asset locations, real-time registration is challenging, and human errors or omissions can make periodic inventory tasks time-consuming. iSME offers practical form fields, convenient for inputting data and recording asset status and locations. It is suitable for enterprises with multiple office locations, even across different countries and regions, enabling easy management of asset status and linking assignees' information. Real-time updates prevent confusion.

Scenario 3: Data

Besides creating accounts and authorizations for employees, managers need to understand the company's authorization usage to evaluate the effectiveness of software procurement, estimate budget requirements, and ensure information security. iSME's data functions allow managers to understand software usage rates. Each morning, managers can open the data to view various beautiful visual reports, gaining a comprehensive understanding of the entire company in under 5 minutes. This not only prevents security risks but also maintains account authorizations. Additionally, when employees encounter authorization issues, managers can first understand the possible situation from the data, accurately identify and resolve problems. Real-time dynamic data assists management and helps in budget planning, ensuring funds are spent wisely.
