Today's businesses are under increasing pressure to operate in an environmentally sustainable and socially responsible way. The sustainability benefits are clear, from reducing costs and environmental impact to improving brand reputation and attracting customers who are increasingly conscious of environmental issues.
As a result, sustainability is fast becoming an essential element of business strategy, and this is particularly true in the field of information technology.
Sustainable IT refers to the practice of using technology in a way that is environmentally friendly and economically viable while also supporting a mix of on-premises and cloud-based infrastructure.
One of the critical challenges of sustainable IT is that it often requires a holistic approach, considering not only the technology itself but also the processes and practices surrounding it. This includes everything from the procurement of hardware and software to data management and software development to the operation and disposal of IT assets.
To understand the complexities of sustainable IT, it's essential to consider the three pillars of sustainability: environmental, social, and governance (ESG).
Environmental sustainability involves reducing the impact of IT on the environment, for example, by using energy-efficient hardware and implementing virtualization and cloud computing to reduce the need for physical servers.
Social sustainability involves ensuring that technology is used in a way that benefits society, for example, by promoting digital inclusion and supporting the development of local communities.
Governance sustainability involves ensuring that technology is used in a way that is transparent, accountable, and in compliance with laws and regulations.
All this said, there is no easy solution or perfect insight. But a crucial step is surfacing available IT sustainability intelligence today to make it a decision factor alongside the usual IT decision factors (cost, compliance, usage, security, vulnerabilities, lifecycle, etc.).
That's why we're excited to announce our upcoming "Sustainable IT in a Hybrid Environment" webinar on February 14th, hosted by Flexera's Mark Bradley and Harrison Leachman and ITAM Review's AJ Witt. We will dive into the developing role of sustainability in the hybrid IT ecosystem and discuss critical topics such as building principles for sustainable development, identifying areas of focus for value delivery, and standard sustainability metrics.
Register now and gain valuable insights on how to make your IT operations more sustainable and environmentally friendly. Don't miss this opportunity to learn from industry experts and show "this great planet some love."
So, join us to learn more about sustainable IT and how to get involved. We hope to see you there!

We are excited to announce the launch of our new IT Visibility Dashboards! This update results from lessons learned from more than 15 different IT Visibility Proof of Concept (POC) efforts conducted in 2022. These POCs used a particular Dashboard template, which was updated after each POC to result in more intuitive and robust dashboards that better meet the needs of the Economic Buyer.
What's new with the Dashboards? (Customer Value Drivers)
More intuitive dashboards based on lessons learned.
More robust insight capabilities based on POC use cases.
Previous generation dashboards will still be available in the Legacy folder.
What additional benefits and value you can expect from the new Dashboards include: (Positive Business Outcomes)
An Executive Summary on the landing page that combines hardware and software.
Clean and categorize folders for specific use case dashboards.
More straightforward navigation of filters with full drill-through capabilities.
Advanced Insight Metrics (calculations), including the current lifecycle stage name.
Scheduling and emailing reports, including CSV exports of report data
Dashboard sorting within charts & graphs to highlight the most critical data - including updated legends
Charts are interactive, allowing dashboard-to-dashboard, dashboard-to-insight, and insight to URL links
Insight to action with AdminStudio Workflow
Self-Service for nontechnical users can search data as they see fit and then create custom reports, charts, or dashboards.
Confidence knowing these dashboards were battle tested and harvested from the front lines of our SE POC efforts.
We hope you will enjoy using the new IT Visibility Dashboards to support your value-based conversations, and we look forward to hearing your feedback.
