Whoah Mark good catch . That is definitely worth knowing prior to
purchase. dameware is about $100 higher per license than Hyena and I
can not see anything off hand that makes it any better. Both offer
pretty much the same feature set. Anyone have a comment on that or
what may set them apart?

 Any of you guys know what's going on with Dameware?  I've used it for years 
 and love it but they've been awfully quiet lately.  Usually they've updated 
 every few months but it's been since Feb since there has been an update.  
 Also if you cruise the forums they no longer sell maintenance.

 I don't want to raise concern if it's not warranted but I do want to point 
 out that a bit of caution may be in order if you are looking to buy.

 The last response that I've gotten from them is that they plan to have v7 out 
 after the first of the year but I'm not really holding my breath.

 We use it, but we also use Dameware which appears to be the same
 product code, with a few enhancements and built in Remote. We never
 got the remote to work in Hyena as it requires an outside product.
 Some admins like each one for different things.

 Yes - we use it.  We don't use it as much for the AD/Exchange
 administration as we do for the reporting and exporting features.

 Thanks,

Been using it for years now. I mostly use it for reporting and to view
items/properties that you cannot see using the normal Windows AD mgt
tools.

And, I've used it to change the local admin account username/password on
domain workstations, also multi-selecting.

Best bang for the buck of any of the purchased tools we own.
