I use Spiceworks daily and have been for the past four years (since beta) and don't know if I could work without it....FYI - I don't work for Spiceworks, I'm just an average user who lives by Spiceworks every day.
Your appear to spam it pretty hard...
Almost a cookie cutter post over here..

I wouldn't say a spammer, not sure where you get that idea from. I'm just a user who is dedicated to the product and benefits everyday from it.
God what is with the shills all over this forum lately? You do realize we're not idiots and can tell you've been a forum member for a day right?
Back on topic: Lansweeper is tons better than SpiceWorks. I've used SpiceWorks several times for places to do basic inventory and help desk type junk. It's slow and the inventory half works.
Lansweeper, stonecat? I think I'll go take a look.
Wow, just did that search. That's hilarious. I wonder, how much does SpiceWorks pay for shilling?
I LOVE SPICEWORKS!!! I hope they will accept me into their community!!!
arrogant elitists like you wouldn't be welcome in the community anyway.
I will give benhar one thing.. It is free, but keep in mind you pay for what you get....
THat's my concern. I don't really mind paying for something if it adds value.
We use SCCM for imaging, anyone have any experience with SCOM? From what I gather it's more for datacenter management, but might fit the bill.
Not a bad program for free. Try it out, then remove if neccesary.
Defending partially....
Also not knocking, you guys also have a great community as well!
I think its reasonable to state that SW is a decent product...for Free... LS for 299 is a pretty darn different animal for sure! But that price starts creeping up as well for consultants and multi-site business'...
LANSweeper.. haven't tried but there are some compelling reasons to... speed and simplicity... (still not running on linux that is the downfall of both)
I'm sorry, but after already having a shill in the thread, having another 4 day account in the thread defending him reaks of astroturfing.
I think your right SCOM is more for DC management. I'm sure you could use it to get everything at a PC level, but I would imagine at a nice cost.
If your looking for something cost effective maybe consider something like TrackIT!. I've heard some good things about it.
