iQuate is a software company which has its headquarters in Dublin, Ireland. Founded in 2002, iQuate develops software to discover and report on what software is deployed on a device (typically a physical or virtual server). This information is often used within Software Asset Management or License Management projects and practices, typically within very large organisations. iQuate has achieved a number of international "firsts" within its field, and has received a number of notable award nominations. ==History== iQuate was founded on 22 May 2002. iQuate originally traded as eManageIT Ltd. and this is still the legal entity name in Ireland (with iQuate being a registered trading name). Initial Venture Capital funding of €700,000 was reported in the Irish news media in 2004〔(Irish software firm secures VC fund – Independent )〕 from EVP. ;Original Products The initial products were: * Audit Manager: An inventory tool, great grandfather to the current iQSonar product. This was an agentless Microsoft Windows focused product which gathered data from remote computers and stored that data in web based, hosted database instances with a web based UI – this was known as an "Application Service Provider" or ASP model – a predecessor to the SaaS Cloud software movement of today. * Network Manager: An agentless near real time (minute by minute) monitoring tool for availability, capacity and performance across multiple platforms including Windows, Linux, Solaris, HP/UX, AIX, databases, network devices, etc. ;Name change In 2004 eManageIT began trading as iQuate as they started selling to the US market. The name change was to avoid a possible conflict with a company which had a product called E Manage (in a non-related space) which was sold in the USA. The Audit Manager product was renamed iQNetScan and the Network Manager product was renamed iQRMS (Remote Managed Services) when the company renamed. ;Refocus In 2009 iQuate started to focus on larger companies and released a product called iQSonar. Over time this replaced iQNetScan and iQRMS was retired – leaving iQSonar the sole product of the company. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「IQuate」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
