Software Inventory

Use the Software Inventory Reports to measure software license compliance or to determine software upgrade needs. The Software Inventory Report creates a list of applications, Control Panels, Extensions, Fonts or Startup Items and their versions according to a search pattern you define.

Click on the Software Inventory toolbar icon or select New>Software Inventory in the Report menu to create a Software Inventory Report. Once selected, the Software Inventory Wizard is displayed, allowing you to select the nodes with Responder clients, the search pattern, and the schedule to run the report.

All selected map objects are automatically selected in the first screen of the wizard. Once you have selected the map objects to include in the report, click Next. Then choose which types of files you want to inventory and optionally any text string you would like to use to narrow the search. Click Next, determine the schedule for running the report, and then click Finish. Depending on your Repository settings, LANsurveyor will either gather the information live or from the Repository.
