Lansweeper 4.0 has been released. Lansweeper is an automated network discovery and asset management tool which scans all your computers and devices and displays them in an easy accessible web interface.
There is no need to install any agents on the computers, all scanning is done by standard build-in functionality.
Most commercial applications are very expensive and are licensed on a per device model. The only limitations of lansweeper are the speed of your server and your bandwidth. By using a free databases like SQL express (or the full MSSQL server) you can make your own queries and reports to enhance the program.
Software inventory problems in other applications:
- You have to install clients (software / agents) on your workstations.
- Scanning is triggered or scheduled at time intervals.
- Laptop users coming into your network only every 2 months aren't scanned.
- Scanning takes a long time.
- You do not get all the information you want from the scans.
- You cannot scan for custom files or registry keys.
- Lansweeper solves these network inventory problems with a simple line in the logon script of each user.
- The first time somebody logs on at a new computer the computer is automatically scanned and all hardware and software inventory is done.
Lansweeper is scanning much more useful information than other programs:
- User data, pictures, groups, logon times, ...
- All hardware information you could ever need
- All installed software, patches and available licenses
- All computer configuration information
- All windows configuration information
- All Active Directory user and computer details
- All running processes
- Custom registry keys that you specify
- Custom file version and other information
- Internet Explorer addons, bars, BHO's and activeX controls
