InSight Dashboard Application
What is InSight?
InSight is a new technology management tool that synthesizes information from a variety of sources into a single, easy-to-use interface.
With the release of InSight, UTSA leaders will be able to make informed decisions about their information technology resources. In the first release of this application, clients will be able to access information relating to computer management, including (but not limited to) inventory, computer age, and computer reporting statistics.
The information displayed in InSight comes from multiple sources such as DEFINE, Inventory, HRMS, network and computer management tools, etc.
Additionally, access to this application can be delegated to others so that everyone who needs to can participate in the management of the resources. The basic principle of InSight is that it will allow UTSA to move from a paradigm of trying to control technology to one where we manage it.
The data is presented in a hierarchical manner that allows all managers to manage technology at their level and below.
Who can access InSight?
Currently, InSight is accessible to UTSA unit owners. Unit owners may log into InSight and delegate their unit view and information to any faculty or staff member.
