Question on: IT Glue
[What is it glue used for?](/discussions/what-is-it-glue-used-for)

What is it glue used for?

IT Glue is typically used for the documentation of IT environments, so endpoints, servers, software, passwords, vendors, users and policies/procedures. The big benefit of IT Glue is being able to link different entries together. For example, if you're looking at a computer, being able to see user, location and network information at a glance. Especially helpful for service desks, compliance or security audits and maintaining accurate information about IT assets.
