ADD-ON FEATURE
OTOBO CMDB – more powerful than ever
Full transparency across your entire infrastructure – seamlessly integrated into your service processes.
The integrated OTOBO CMDB (Configuration Management Database) is more than just a central asset directory. It provides full visibility into your IT and non-IT infrastructure, uncovers dependencies, and helps detect and resolve service disruptions early. The real added value: improved planning, reduced risk, and higher service availability.
Ready2Import CI Classes: Predefined, field-tested, customizable.
Based on real ITSM use cases and our consulting experience, the new OTOBO CMDB provides ready-to-use Ready2Import CI classes – easily adaptable to your specific needs.
Precisely Defined Access Rights
Control exactly who can view or edit which information – because accounting needs different data than the service team.
New: Even customers can now access CIs made available for them directly via the service portal.
Custom Descriptions & New Field Types
Document your assets just as you need it – with dynamic form structures, a clear layout, and new field types that enable more linking options and automation potential.
Find What Matters – Faster
Benefit from flexible filtering and search functions – even with large data sets.
Seamless Integration into Your Service Processes
The integrated CMDB is tightly woven into your core (IT) service management processes. Users can select the affected device directly when reporting an issue – and the new hard drive is automatically written to the CMDB during the procurement process.
All Dependencies at a Glance
Quickly see how CIs are related – and how, for example, disruptions might impact other components. For greater transparency and well-informed decisions.
Optimized CI Synchronization via REST/SOAP
Seamlessly integrate external systems using robust and high-performance web service interfaces.
High-Performance Storage
Thanks to an optimized storage structure, you can work quickly and reliably – even with thousands of CIs.
Whether it’s ITSM, facility management, contract administration, or fleet management – the OTOBO CMDB adapts seamlessly to your individual needs.
Challenge: Keeping track of devices, machinery, and tools across departments, while documenting changes accurately.

Solution with OTOBO: Rooms, furniture, air conditioning units, projectors, and other equipment can be stored as CIs. Maintenance intervals, contracts, and responsible persons can be directly linked.

Challenge: Service, maintenance, and leasing contracts expire or renew automatically – often without being noticed in time.
Solution with OTOBO: Manage contracts as CIs – including deadlines, contacts, and linked or attached documents. (For storing many or large files, a separate DMS is recommended.)
