I'm looking for a hardware and software inventory management solution that will work with computers which are on and off a Windows AD server. Basically, something that "phones home" with all the software and hardware installed on the computer at any given time.

I believe I need something client-based like Keseya, but streamlined to only function as inventory management software.

Do any solutions other than Keseya exist? So far all I've found are solutions which rely on each machine being connected to AD for the inventory analysis to function, which isn't something I can use.

I haven't messed with it too much- I was on the client install side of a deployment a couple years ago. I looked at it a little, forgot most of it.
 
Looks like we're going with ManageEngine Desktop Central 8. I downloaded the trial and it seems very useful.

OCS seems like a good solution as well, but I think we're going to just pony up the cash for DC8.
 
IBM BigFix is what we use, I have implimented it for over 5,000 nodes and next onto the datacenter for all our VMs
 
Honestly, I haven't really looked into anything yet.

We have spiceworks at corporate but its not the right fit for all of our remote sites. way too much headache for 2 machines per site. I'm hoping to find something easier to manage.
