Monitor, checking hardware and software inventory for network devices is become more easy now day as lots of software as Microsoft System Management Server and Novell ZENworks Suite are use to be in the big company with more then 100 pc and above in their network. By using those system or software that I mention above can make the IT administrator or system administrator in the company do their work more easy. As they can easily get any of the network hardware and software information directly from their pc or network devices without go to that particular network pc. But the system or software I mention above is not free and for any users who are still looking for the similar software for them to check their network devices, they may try the Spiceworks and some more it’s free.
Spiceworks is totally free for users to install at their company and use to scan, monitor and check hardware and software for the network devices. Users just have to download the Spiceworks installation files and install at their network pc, then users just follow the instruction on the screen to finish the installation and start using to scan all the network devices.
Spiceworks will display the report of all network devices after finish scan the network, and hereis the network devices that Spicework will scan within the network. (Workstation, Servers, Printers, Networking, Others, Unknowns & Software) Beside that, users have options setup the helpdesk within the network by using Spiceworks. With this option, other users may direct log a case or create a ticket for the network administrator when there having problem with their pc.

Effectively managing pc inventory across the LAN, WAN, and now more than ever, the Internet, can be a daunting or even impossible task. I talk with IT Managers who struggle to understand what it is they have out there to manage. Successful IT support starts with knowing what you have. If you are looking for a solution that provides the reporting and detailed inventory of every system I would highly recommend looking at the computer inventory software from Kaseya.
