Features Summary

On-Demand Audit

Using the On-Demand Audit, you can remotely audit Windows workstations and servers for up-to-the-minute hardware and software information. There is no need to deploy the inventory agent or make any configuration changes on remote computers. The audit is carried out in real time, and the snapshots are delivered directly to the central repository.

Linux and Mac Inventory

With Alloy Discovery you can schedule the audit of Linux and Mac computers in the form of "cron" jobs.

Data Analysis

Flexible data filtering, grouping, and sorting enables you to conveniently analyze your inventory data. With the point-and-click interface of the advanced filter you can create complex filtering criteria to achieve the desired level of detail.

Web Publishing

This feature enables you to access your inventory data from the convenience of a web browser. You can export audit snapshots in the form of interactive, drill-down HTML pages, ready for publishing on your Intranet. Alloy Discovery™ includes a web report utility, which can be implemented as a scheduled task to regularly update and publish your inventory data.

External Tools

Simply select any record in the Computer List and launch an external application from a configurable menu. The external tool launcher will pass the name or the IP address of the selected computer into that application as a parameter. This way you can ping, open the Computer Management console, or initiate a remote management session with any computer on your list in just a couple of mouse clicks.

Snapshot Pruning

The configurable pruning feature automatically cleans the Computer List of redundant information resulting from computers no longer being audited.

Data Reporting

Just apply the necessary filtering or grouping rules to any data grid, and you can easily print out the entire contents of the grid as an on-the-fly report.

Data Export

Alloy Discovery can export all the details of your audit snapshots to XML. You can then easily import the XML format into all types of databases, or integrate it with third-party tools. You can also export audit data in HTML, CSV, or Excel formats.
