IT Asset Tool for SME

Rating: 10 out of 10

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Used Device42 on my virtualized environment to test my own devices in a UAT environment.

Fairly powerful in terms of scope as we can run several scans and deployment concurrently (/23 subnet masks). No need for scripts as everything can be done via the system that reduces the manual deployment scenario.

Pros

  • Provides detailed information regarding the IT assets with Device42 installed
  • Report generation is fairly easy as compared to some of the system I used in the past

Cons

  • I don't usually comment about the user interface but it is kind of outdated

Likelihood to Recommend

Great for deploying updates on your environment. As per my case, I utilized Device42 in a virtualized environment. Removes the time needed to manually deploy because of how intuitive it is to configure with Device42.
