For SKU's I've been using https://github.com/EvotecIT/PSSharedGoods/blob/master/Public/Converts/Convert-Office365License.ps1 which I build manually and I and few people submit PR's to it. I will still use it because it's very fast, but now I have a proper way to gather names from my tenant and find things if they change. Just need to get around and write some command that will compare the list I have there with the list from O365. Still, people will need to help because you can only get stuff you have from your own O365.
