    Netbox is very well suited when you want to consolidate your inventory in one place. Netbox is also very well suited when you want to generate network configurations. You can request the REST API to get the date of a device and generate network configurations with a templating tool, and that is very easy.

    Smarts is well-suited to handle rules orchestration for complex decision flows where there's a need for advanced functionality and reusable components or assets. It is very useful for scenario testing, modeling, and dashboarding. These capabilities give you robust insights and help you optimize your decisions. It is less appropriate for very simple decisioning needs.

    The API is just very well designed. All tools say that what you can do with webUI, you can also do it via the REST API. That is usually not the case except for Netbox, where you can really do everything with the API. For instance with GLPI, you cannot get rack and rack units data with the API, while you can do it via the webUI
