Open Computer and Software Inventory Next Generation is an application designed to help a network or system administrator keep track of the computers configuration and software that are installed on the network.
Open Computer and Software Inventory Next Generation is an application designed to help a network or system administrator keep track of the computers configuration and software that are installed on the network.
It is also able to detect all active devices on your network, such as switch, router, network printer and unattended devices. For each one, it stores MAC and IP addresses and allows you to classify them.
Last, but not least, OCS Inventory NG includes package deployment feature on client computers. From the central management server, you can upload packages (software setup, commands or only files to store on client computers) which will be downloaded through HTTP/HTTPS and launched by agent on client computer.
Used with a IT and Asset Management Software such as open source tool GLPI, you will have a powerfull inventory and asset management software with automatic updates of computer configuration, license management, help desk and more.
