We are currently using Track-it to monitor our software and hardware, as well as the helpdesk side of it. The AEA is internally using that as well. We are also doing a little testing with SpiceWorks, which is free but does display some ads to cover the cost. I just looked at the one Lance sent out, but I didn't see much on the hardware/software inventory piece.
I can't afford to continue with Track-it, and we are looking for alternatives. If anyone out there has other ideas, I would like more ideas as well.

Recommendations on a good (hopefully free and cross-platform) piece of software to do this? --- Timothy A.
