Discover – the key to a complete PC audit
Not all PC audit and IT asset management tools are created equal. One key product function that differentiates a good, reliable tool from the rest is its discovery capability and process. At Express Metrix, we pride ourselves on the fact that our discovery is tops in the industry. Learn what key pieces of our discovery make us unique:
Workstation Discovery
Express products provide automatic workstation discovery using Active Directory Groups or NT domains. This functionality means you’ll find all the workstations in your organization that need inventorying. Deploy the Express client from the administration console using Active Directory groups, NT domains or by IP address; thus avoiding time-consuming trips to your users' workstations. Automatic workstation discovery not only saves you time, it ensures your PC audits and software inventory are accurate and comprehensive. No more overlooking the out of the way workstation, or the long forgotten remote user.
Software Application Discovery
Express products discover ALL the software installed in your environment, not just the files it recognizes. By discovering all software installed, Express software ensures you have an accurate and complete software inventory. Some tools will discover only the software they recognize, leaving you vulnerable to license compliance violations and liable during vendor software audits.
File Discovery
Discover everything so you're never misinformed about what is or is not installed. This means you can discover non-work related files such as MP3’s that consume valuable disk-space. It also means that you won’t find yourself in a difficult situation during a vendor software audit due to a left-behind support file for an application that has been uninstalled. By reporting on ALL files in your environment, Express products guarantee a complete picture of your software installations, and ensure accurate inventories.
Accurate software discovery is critical to reducing your legal liability during vendor software audits. With Express Software Manager, you’ll sleep better at night knowing you own the tool with the best discovery on the market. Discover everything so you’re never in the dark.
Now that you’ve discovered everything, learn how Express products recognize what’s been discovered and why recognition is another key product differentiator.
