IT Asset Discovery

No other solution can match the breadth and deprth of automatic asset identification and tracking offered by Discovery . Thanks to its 100% network visibility, Discovery  makes sure that you have the latest information on the configuration, usage and physical location of all your hardware and software.

Hardware inventory management

In addition to PCs, Discovery ’s patent-pending LANProbe technology tracks every IP device on the network including printers, routers, servers and firewalls. And it’s not just the local network that’s covered; Frontrange Discovery will find all devices connected to the corporate-wide network, whether by LAN, WAN or even internet dial-up accounts.

By continually monitoring the network, Frontrange Discovery can alert administrators to changes such as memory being removed from a PC, or a device being moved from one location to another. Frontrange will also automatically recognize a new device being added to the network and can even identify if a particular PC hasn’t returned an audit for a period of time.

Software Discovery

Frontrange Discovery enables managers to automatically locate and account for all software throughout the organization – dramatically reducing the management time required to assess and prove license compliance.

By tracking software usage, Frontrange Discovery can help managers decide when to remove redundant software, when to re-deploy applications and even whether or not to renew maintenance contracts.

Frontrange Discovery can also alert administrators to the presence of unauthorized software on individual machines, helping secure the integrity of the network and reduce the legal exposure of the organization.

Frontrange Discovery helps administrators identify where specific instances of an application require a security upgrade to combat a specific vulnerability – cutting down the time taken to react to threats.

Physical Location Tracking

Auditing PCs and other hardware devices for type and configuration is critical to successful IT management, but so too is knowing where assets are located in the organization.

Frontrange Discovery is the only IT inventory solution which allows managers to track the physical location of assets across the organization without the need for costly and time-consuming walk round audits.

Once automatically discovered and then mapped to a physical location, each device is monitored by Frontrange Discovery, which can automatically alert administrators if a machine is repositioned or even removed from the network. An audit trail keeps track of current and previous locations, together with the length of time a device resided in each place.

For managers that want to return PCs at the end of their lease, locate the laser printer acquired without a purchase order, or simply know where to send engineers to perform a memory upgrade, Frontrange Discovery provides the fastest way to locate all hardware across the organization.

Multi-platform Support

In an ideal world, organisations would be able to turn to a single supplier for all their networking needs. In reality, not all PCs run the same operating systems – yet you need to be able to track all IT assets, not just your Windows PCs.

Discovery supports a wide range of operating systems and network types, so you can be sure that whatever your IT assets run on, you can dynamically track them anywhere in the enterprise.
