Managing an inventory of hardware and software updates for an entire PC fleet on paper or even in Excel would require a lot of hard work and time However AIDA64 can provide a very detailed inventory of all the hardware and software components in a PC create a report of these even automatically if required and send these reports to any selected computer or server From there all the system administrator needs to do is thumb through the reports and solve any potential problems Recommended report format AIDA64 supports several report formats but it is recommended to save reports in CSV format or a database as these are easy to work with later and require no conversion or post processing HTML files can be used for occasional reports as well as for publication on the web while we can use any of the supported formats according to our needs We need to make sure that reports are created in the same language For example if we have created reports in Hungarian but would like to change the report language to English it is recommended to store the new reports separately from those previously generated as otherwise Change Manager will detect changes in almost all data We also need to make sure that we include the same components in the reports that is that we use identical report profiles or store those which were made using different report profiles separately REPORT WIZARD With Report Wizard we can easily create reports in AIDA
