LANsurveyor Feature » Network Inventory Management for Hardware & Software


  • Compile detailed network inventory and system data
  • Store network inventory in standard database format
  • Automatically produce hardware and software inventory reports

LANsurveyor quickly and easily compiles complete documentation of all devices on the network, including network hardware and Windows®, Linux, and Macintosh® servers, workstations, and desktops. Adding optional Responder Clients enables LANsurveyor to deliver detailed inventory and system data, such as application programs, OS versions, CPU utilization, RAM, disk volume capacity, and available disk space.

Network inventory is automatically stored in a local Microsoft SQL Express database or in the centralized Microsoft SQL Server CMDB you specify. You can use built-in LANsurveyor reports to access your complete network inventory or use third party software, even when client nodes are offline, since the data is stored in a standard database format.

With LANsurveyor, you can schedule automated inventory discovery to keep your network inventory up-to-date. Nodes that are offline during scheduled inventory discovery are retried after an amount of time you specify (e.g., 2 hours or every day).

By automating software and hardware inventory reports, LANsurveyor delivers time and cost savings, ensures licensing compliance and enables IT personnel to plan effectively for system upgrades and modifications.
