RE: Spiceworks?
Spiceworks does have a nice report builder, but since Lansweeper is SQL based its easy to create custom reports in any number of ways. Also true of Spiceworks with the ODBC driver for SQLite. I may have to give Spiceworks another look because I really want to like it, but 2 years ago I just found it too frustrating with stuck scans, slow response, missing devices and unreliable monitors.

It is a pretty good product, for free. I am sure there are better ones out there, but I am cheap. J Give it a try, if you don't like it, you are out nothing but time. I do agree, they send TONS of e-mail. Set up a filter, or a separate e-mail address.

RE: Spiceworks?
Spiceworks plays nice with Firefox but is slow on IE. We also had problems with remote scans which has been correctly with the recent updates. From: Ralph Smith [mailto:m...@gatewayindustries.org] Sent: April-28-10 2:47 PM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: Spiceworks? I've used Spiceworks and mostly liked it, but I seemed to continuously have problems where it wouldn't finish a network scan, especially when it is scanning remote office computers. I also found in the past that the web interface was painfully slow, but that may have improved. Currently I use the free version of Lansweeper, which I like a lot. They just released a new version with a lot of useful looking improvements, but I haven't tried it yet.

My experience with SW is that I tried it out and didn't really care for it and removed it. I continue to receive emails from them even though I have unsubscribed myself numerous times.
