What are types of tools?

Types of internal tools are often categorized by the problem they solve. Common types include admin panels, data dashboards, approval and workflow tools, ticketing and case management systems, inventory or asset trackers, internal CRMs, and HR or people operations tools. You also see specialized tools like deployment consoles, QA checklists, and incident management platforms for technical teams. Another important category is integration and automation tools that move data between systems or trigger actions. Together, these types form a toolkit that mirrors your organization's structure, processes, and responsibilities.
