Total Network Inventory is the ultimate auditing tool for network administrators of large company networks. It provides advanced auditing features and information on networked computers including all software and hardware devices installed on each machine. It is the ideal inventory management software for today's growingly demanding corporate networks. Total Network Inventory does not require you to have any client-side software installed either. This greatly improves reliability, flexibility and deployment time. The software can scan and audit computers running Windows, Linux or Mac OS X without any problems. In order to access the remote computer, all you will need is the password for the administrator account. You can scan for networked devices by individual nodes, Active Directory Structure and network address ranges as well.

Total Network Inventory offers an extensive selection of features to help you manage your inventory easily, quickly and effectively. You can keep your inventory well organized by grouping assets, providing comments and attaching additional information when necessary and much more. The program ...
... provides thoroughly detailed and user-friendly reports in which data is conveniently categorized and presented in an effective way. Reports can then be edited, exported or printed. The search function provided is also versatile and effective and you can click on results as they appear, before the search is even finished. When Total Network Inventory has carried out the scan, all of the statistics and information about your company's network will be presented to you. You'll be able to find out, for example, how many copies of a certain program are installed on the computers on the network.

The network inventory software can scan almost anything connected to the network including Apple- and Linux-based computers and other devices. Any device attached to the network can be scanned and audited by Total Network Inventory, provided the device supports the SNMP protocol. The scanning feature is particularly impressive because of its exceptional speed and ease of use. All that you need to do to get a complete network inventory is tell the software where and what to scan and then let it do the hard work for you. It can be configured to scan your entire network or just individual nodes or IP address ranges. It will present you with a list of computers in your workgroup and show you the domain structure of the network. You can then select individual nodes and specify the login names and passwords for them so that you don't have to log in manually each time. Scans typically take a matter of minutes, even on larger networks.

Network inventory software provides the ultimate solution for keeping track of larger networks. It is useful for keeping your company's IT resources well maintained and updated. It also assists with diagnosing problems and much more. The only other option is to do all of this manually - something which becomes virtually impossible in larger corporate networks. Total Network Inventory saves time and money from the very beginning.
