Developed and directly supported by Cormant
Cormant develops and directly supports its DCIM software. Your team works with people who understand the platform, from configuration and integration to training and ongoing support. Choosing a DCIM partner means choosing the expertise that helps keep your infrastructure data and processes working over time.
A lifecycle record from receiving dock to decommissioning
Cormant DCIM tracks ordered equipment, installed assets, spares and retired infrastructure in one system. Each record can hold the attributes your teams require, from ownership and warranty data to serial numbers, support status and financial-system references.
- Locate installed equipment and available spares in seconds.
- Preserve moves, changes, ownership and audit history.
- Bulk-import records and update large data sets using familiar grid-based tools.
- Synchronize relevant asset data with CMDB and financial platforms.
Trace end-to-end power and data connectivity
Ports, cables, circuits, pathways and device relationships are modeled as part of the infrastructure record. Teams can follow a connection from endpoint to endpoint, document MPO and other cable types, and see the dependencies behind a planned change.
- Manage copper, fiber, power and structured cabling.
- Validate channel rules, load and redundancy.
- Use barcode and RFID scanning to reduce field-entry errors.
- Identify equipment at risk when a connection or upstream component changes.

Talk to a DCIM expertCormant DCIM FAQs
Questions teams ask when evaluating DCIM software
Teams often begin with an operational problem—not the term “DCIM.” These answers explain how Cormant supports accurate infrastructure records, capacity planning, connectivity visibility and multi-site operations.
“We manage racks and assets in Excel. When is it time to move to DCIM?”
Spreadsheets can work for a small, stable environment, but they become difficult to trust as infrastructure, sites, connections and change activity grow. A DCIM platform provides one shared system for equipment, rack layouts, power, connectivity, capacity and operational records. Cormant DCIM helps teams replace disconnected spreadsheets with structured, configurable records that can be maintained by the people doing the work.
“How can we find available rack space, power and capacity before installing new servers?”
Teams need an accurate view of physical space, power availability, equipment placement and dependencies before approving a deployment. Cormant DCIM brings these records together so planners can identify suitable locations, understand constraints and make better-informed capacity decisions before changes are made in the data center.
“How do we keep rack diagrams, asset records and connectivity information accurate?”
Accurate infrastructure records require an approach that works for both planners and field teams. Cormant DCIM supports configurable workflows, barcode-based auditing and mobile use—including offline work where network access is limited. Teams can record changes at the point of work, then maintain a more reliable view of assets, racks, cables and connections.
“Can DCIM show how equipment is connected for both data and power?”
Yes. Cormant DCIM is designed to document end-to-end physical connectivity, including data and power paths. This helps teams trace connections, understand dependencies, plan changes with more confidence and reduce the risk of incomplete or outdated infrastructure documentation.
“We operate several data centers and edge sites. Can one DCIM platform manage them all?”
Cormant DCIM provides a single configurable source of truth across data centers, edge locations, colocation environments and enterprise campuses. Teams can standardize records and processes while retaining the flexibility to model the facilities, equipment, workflows and operational requirements unique to each location.
“Can field technicians update infrastructure records without reliable Wi-Fi or mobile coverage?”
Yes. Cormant DCIM supports synchronized offline mobile workflows for locations where connectivity is unavailable or restricted. Technicians can scan barcodes or RFID tags, validate equipment and record work at the point of activity, then synchronize approved updates back to the central platform when a connection is available.
“Can we start with a DCIM proof of concept before committing to a full rollout?”
Yes. A proof of concept gives teams a practical way to test Cormant DCIM against a representative part of their environment. It can validate data import, asset and connectivity modelling, workflows, integrations, reporting and mobile processes before a wider rollout is planned. Explore a Cormant DCIM proof of concept.
“Can Cormant DCIM integrate with ServiceNow, a CMDB, BMS or other enterprise systems?”
Cormant DCIM supports integration with enterprise systems through documented REST and SOAP APIs, plus configurable import and export processes. It can support bi-directional data exchange with platforms such as ServiceNow, CMDBs, ITSM tools, BMS applications, identity systems and other operational tools. Review DCIM integration options.
