I downloaded Spiceworks a couple years ago and it was just slow to use and it 
took forever to index our network. I don't know if that has improved since 
then. We have more than 250 machines/devices (which used to be their max) and 
it bogged down really fast.

I tested Spiceworks out last year and it seemed to do a pretty good job.  It is 
rather easy to setup and manage, they have several tutorial videos to help.  
And for only 25000 MD's the price is just right as well.

I'm looking for some software to do technology inventory. What I envision is 
something that would not only collect data from any Ethernet connected device, 
but would also have the ability to input data for other items, i.e., projectors 
(that are not network connected), Smart Boards, etc.

I've been looking at Lansweeper which is not terribly expensive (and has a free 
version to get started). Any recommendations from the group for other things 
you are using?

Thanks,
David
