Assets (formerly Insights) allows you to create, manage, and assign attributes to your assets: from hardware and software to offices, licenses, etc. For example, you might add object types for your hardware: servers, computer, mobile phones. And for each object type, you could have multiple assets, such as each employee-issued computer. And for each of those assets, you can create attributes such as model, ram, IP address, user, etc.
With Structure, you can utilize these assets and attributes within columns, formulas, and group generators.
