SpiceWorks: The freedom to manage IT
Just for the record, I don’t know these guys personally, nor do I get any kickbacks. It’s hard to do revenue-sharing on “free.”
I use spiceworks at work, for 2 reasons: Because it is a complete IT management tool that does most of the stuff we need (Hardware, HelpDesk, Monitoring and Reporting) without requiring a lot of training for the helpdesk people and because is FREE.
I can’t strech enough to tell you how it makes my life (and my co-workers) easier, having this kind of software in company where resources are limited, and time is very crucial.
Spiceworks was not designed for the enterprise level companies, for those monsters there is plenty of better products, but also very expensive ones; It was designed for Small or Medium size corporations where the level of complexity is fair enough but resources not. We are managing a good number of devices (PC’s, Routers, POS Stations, Printers, Software installed, etc) distributed all over the domain across our National Network (WAN) with a secure connection, we also use the Help Desk Ticket system to keep track of frequent problems and prioritize events. That includes all the IT related issues on every restaurant and at the corporate office too.
