When Businesses Develop, It Professionals Must Deal With The Growing Number Of Computer Systems A

When businesses develop, IT professionals must deal with the growing number of computer

systems and the increasing difficulty in supervising these systems. To maintain the systems, a network inventory or PC audit is used. At one time, performing such an inventory involved personally visiting each computer and writing down the information by hand in a spreadsheet. Since then, fortunately, software and operating systems have developed to make this data capture more convenient. IT professionals always are on the lookout for improved software inventory to make this tedious task easier. NEWT Professional, in development since 2003, is now able to scan 100 computers in less than five minutes. This is due to continuous improvements on the underlying scan engine. The number of scannable items, along with the speed, saves time and effort. An extra 25 nodes is free on all licenses, providing greater value. It's compatible with Windows 2000, Windows XP, Vista, Windows 7 and all versions of Windows Server.

NEWT Professional is useful for just about any network where a total network inventory is needed, and many MSP (Managed Service Providers) and consultants use NEWT Pro to effectively gather configuration information for their clients. It detects all the normal hardware and software inventory information, including CPU info, system serial numbers, OS Product Keys, etc., but also goes a step further, gathering CPU, system and hard drive temperature, USB type (1.x or 2.0), correct hard drive type (IDE vs. SATA) & serial number, monitor type (LCD/CRT), detailed RAM Slot info and many others.

In choosing a network management software product, it is important to be aware of the two major methods such products use to collect data. Some products use an agent, others are agent-less. Often when using an agent, it is installed on each system the software is meant to scan, and then must be manually updated. On the other hand, agent-less software often encounters security issues with the operating system, which requires the user to visit those machines with issues to correct the problem. Using advanced network inventory techniques, NEWT Professional avoids the security roadblocks that can interrupt agent-less software inventory, and it also circumvents the necessity of manually installing software on each scanned machine as is often needed with the agent method. This has reduced auditing time to minutes as opposed to hours or days. Whether you need software asset management or network inventory, NEWT Professional fits the bill.
