Auditint, Query builder and other tools for BI 4.1

Hello,

We are interested in finding the best approach and tools to find out the below things besides Auditor and Query Builder.

-Versioning of reports ( how to track versions)
-Report numbering, etc.
-Audit of current Database ( what reports are not being run): besides Auditing in 4.1 and Query builder what other options are out there?
-Cleanup of unused reports, catalog, etc.
-Possible tools to use

Thanks,
