## What it is
GLPI is a free, open-source IT asset management and IT service management (ITSM) platform written in PHP. It provides ITIL-aligned service desk features including ticketing, incident/problem/change management, CMDB, dynamic inventory, license tracking, software auditing, and data center infrastructure management.

## Use cases
- track and inventory IT assets like computers, printers, and network equipment
- run an ITIL-compliant helpdesk with ticketing and SLAs
- manage software licenses and audit installed software
- maintain a CMDB with up-to-date configuration data
- manage data center infrastructure (racks, rooms, DCIM)
- track contracts, warranties, and financial information for IT assets
- manage incidents, problems, and change requests
- build a knowledge base and FAQ for user support

## When to choose
- you need a self-hosted, open-source ITSM/ITAM solution
- you want combined asset inventory and helpdesk in one tool
- you need ITIL process support (incident, problem, change management)
- you want license tracking and software auditing
- you need CMDB and data center infrastructure management

## When to avoid
- you only need a lightweight issue tracker without asset management
- you require a fully managed SaaS with no self-hosting option (though cloud hosting is offered commercially)
- you need deep integrations not covered by GLPI's plugin ecosystem
