GLPI in Action, Simplifying IT Asset Tracking and Support
Use Cases and Deployment Scope
We currently use GLPI to cover 3 areas in our infrastructure:
1: Manage our complete IT inventory which includes all computers, servers, networking gear, UPS and track all warranties, maintenance contracts.
2: Ticketing system GLPI is the solution we use for all our ticketing needs.
3: we also use the reservation plugin to lend out IT equipment to users.
Pros
- Asset tracking
- Inventory mangement
- Helpdesk ticketing
Cons
- Lack of auto update mechanism.
- Admin interface is somewhat dated.
Likelihood to Recommend
GLPI is
well suited to an on prem environment, I work for a company that values open-source
software and European solutions.
I have no
experience with GLPI cloud hosted solution or their support as we have in house
devs that fix and improve our installation, their community in the support forum
is excellent if you have a question or want advice on an issue.
