# BMC Software

The BMC Software integration with Infraon Infinity allows customers to seamlessly sync all discovered IT assets—including networks, VMs, hosts, and routers—into the Infraon platform. This ensures accurate, real-time asset visibility across dashboards and reports, while maintaining predefined asset categories and eliminating the need to rediscover assets already managed in BMC.
