Snipe-IT vs. Symantec IT Management Suite

Snipe-IT is well suited to managed inventory, accessories, contracts, audits, and maintenance. Some features are specific to assets and others cover all types of items put into Snipe-IT. It is tedious to manage user equipment as kits are mostly not usable and checking in items from a user requires each individual item to be checked in.

The Symantec IT Management Suite is used throughout the company (global). It is efficient and reports via email any type of problem found, from threats to attacks. The update on the clients is carried out without being noticed. When the system is doing some sort of scan, older computers are slow. Other than that, I believe it is an ideal software for monitoring the entire infrastructure.

Snipe-IT is easy to use, fairly easy to install, and simple for end users to find their assigned equipment. Tweaking it does take some configuration outside of the UI with scripting, config file changes, and battling php configurations at times. The GUI is pretty well done for most day to day functions.

I am bit biased after using Symantec ITSM for 10 plus years. However, I found its ability to wrap everything into one console for at a view enterprise health a powerful tool for my department and others. The ability to provide self healing of software packages to workstations was especially powerful. The ability to customize data connections to other tools and automate those inputs and outputs let us provide the business data to support enterprise decisions on Hardware and software usage.

With the Blue Coat acquisition the question remains on how much support Symantec is going to give the ITSM suite. Its just not that sexy anymore to have to support a product that touches all the hardware anymore. A few of the really good support reps have gone the way of private which is very concerning.

We evaluated Norton and Kaspersky, we chose Symantec to provide more options and more guarantees. In addition, we have used the tool for more than 10 years in the company (the time I am working). It has an interface with all monitoring data and statistics. A specific display of each piece of connected equipment in the network, making monitoring easy and, in case of a threat, it notifies us.
