License Tracking Software

[matthewataylor]

Hello,

I am looking for some recommendations re: software to audit my network and report what software I have loaded on each machine. My network has about 35 nodes. I have looked into TrackIT, not sure if I really need all the helpdesk functions. Mainly I want to find out what is installed. I have used the Microsoft tool, but I want to know other program besides Microsoft.

Thanks in adavance...

Try Unicenter TNG AMO(Asset Management Option) very flexible keeps a SQL database of all the information.

Microsoft SMS has some very powerful reporting capabilities. There are also now options for using SMS with non MS operating systems.
