Difference is what you get

Puntos a favor:

We are both using Total Network Inventory in our enviroment and offering it to our customers. I have never heard complains about it. Nearly every inventory management software uses the same structures to gather data from clients/assets. TNI uses them all and the big difference is reporting. TNI's reporting is very detailed and ver very flexible.

Puntos en contra:

TNI is not working as a service. I am not sure if it has to work that way but it would be better.

Alternativas consideradas: ManageEngine Endpoint Central

Razones para cambiar a Total Network Inventory: Manage engine is much more complex. I do not want to pay money annually to features I will not use.

TNI - Useful software

Puntos en contra:

Occasional windows interaction bugs. Such as when minimizing the window on a multi screen setup the icon for the program would move to another screen. It's fixed now.

Comprehensive Network Mapping and Reporting

Comentarios: Total Network is a must have for a reasonably priced, non-intrusive scan of all the computers on your network, and get detailed info on what OS and software they are running. It is a lot cheaper and more flexible than a software audit!

Puntos a favor:

The product goes out over your network by subnet or Domain and interrogates all node it finds and reports OS, software installs, and other vital info. You can hunt down computers on your network that use a certain version of software that is in need of upgrade, or just keep a snapshot of what software is running on your network.

Puntos en contra:

It is a little time consuming to get a complete scan completed. I wish there was a feature to allow you to just go out and look for changes since your last full scan
