Network administrators know that a successful network management strategy requires gathering accurate and up-to-date information about the organization’s IT environment and conducting regular infrastructure and security audits. To smoothly integrate these vital activities into your routine, try AlloyScan, a lightweight but comprehensive cloud-native scanning and auditing solution!

AlloyScan automatically discovers networked hardware and identifies each device and its user. AlloyScan will collect, present, and help you analyze a wealth of device-specific hardware and software information.

With its powerful scanning and auditing features, AlloyScan will become the ultimate source of truth for all physical and virtual IT assets and help your organization achieve solid security and implement proactive change management.

I am a network administrator, and my essential pain points are:

The sheer complexity of our infrastructure makes asset location, identification, and management next to impossible
The number of employees working remotely is steadily growing, and the vulnerability of the IT infrastructure is growing exponentially.
We are unable to cope with the intensification of the "digital transformation" movement – we do not have enough resources to manage all IT assets and services for expensive solutions.

What does AlloyScan bring to the table?

AlloyScan provides complete visibility into your network architecture. It automatically discovers and identifies all active network devices and obtains their hardware details.
It collects information about installed peripherals and keeps track of all the software and applications installed across your organization.
AlloyScan also gathers data about your virtual infrastructure, including hypervisors, virtual machines, and their relationships, and about computer users, including user data from the Active Directory and information about existing user accounts and user groups.
Creating a complete, searchable, and continuously updated inventory of all your IT assets is only a small portion of what AlloyScan is capable of. Its ultimate goal is continuous tracking of the discovered devices, checking them for compliance and monitoring for any configuration changes. This is where AlloyScan’s analytical capabilities come into play. It will help quickly group IT assets by multiple asset criteria, run ready-to-use reports, and stay on top of important situations.

Sounds interesting, but how exactly does it work?

STEP ONE: You start with an entirely automated network scan that discovers servers, hypervisors, workstations, virtual machines, printers, and other IP-enabled devices. STEP TWO: Then you specify which assets are to be audited, that is subjected to deeper analysis that retrieves hardware and software information.
STEP THREE: Craft your IT inventory by grouping the audited devices based on multiple asset criteria.
STEP FOUR: Manage the IT inventory by running ready-to-use reports and subscribing to smart notifications to stay alerted to important changes.
STEP FIVE: Create new API-based integrations with external systems to support your IT processes and continuously leverage real-time, accurate inventory data through them. AlloyScan can be integrated with a variety of widely used systems, such as ServiceNow, Jira, Zendesk and others.
