            <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The term network inventory means many different things to different people.</p><p>A network inventory is the collection of all hardware and software assets on a network. The term network inventory is typically used in the business setting, both by the management and the IT department. Decision-makers demand a running list of all the stuff on the company network because it allows them to better plan future software and hardware purchases and make sound strategic decisions. Network administrators need to have a good understanding of all the equipment that makes up the company network to diagnose and fix problems in a timely manner and to prepare for audits.</p><p>Most of those who are responsible for <a href="https://www.network-inventory-advisor.com/inventory-management.html">network inventory management</a> rely on <a href="https://www.network-inventory-advisor.com/inventory-software.html">network inventory software</a> such as Network Inventory Advisor or Total Network Inventory to accomplish what would otherwise take days and weeks in a matter of minutes and hours. Besides being time-efficient, network inventory software has numerous capabilities that are indispensable for preparing for audits, including reporting, automatic hardware and software asset tracking, and customizable alerts.</p><figure><img alt="" src="https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/640/0*YzSHKR5CKk946O2Z.png" /></figure><h3>How Can Network Inventory Advisor Help Me Manage My Network Inventory?</h3><p>First released in 2008, Network Inventory Advisor is a third-party network management tool designed to collect all relevant data on network devices and obtain detailed software and hardware statistics. Network Inventory Advisor is developed by ClearApps LLC, software development company headquartered in Elk Grove, California.Since it first became available, Network Inventory Advisor has become one of the most popular network inventory software solutions, and, in this section, we briefly describe some of the ways how Network Inventory Advisor can help you manage your network inventory.</p><h3><a href="https://www.network-inventory-advisor.com/asset-management-software.html">Software Asset Management</a></h3><p>As the official software audit partner of Autodesk Inc., Network Inventory Advisor supports software products from over 500 vendors, giving companies of all sizes the ability to easily track installations, software versions, licenses, and services on all computers with a press of a button.</p><p>Those who choose Network Inventory Advisor as their network inventory software of choice don’t need to worry about passing software audits. With many different licensing models, the modern software landscape can be very difficult to navigate. Most companies these days pay for yearly and monthly software subscriptions, purchase software license keys, and sometimes even pay for on-demand cloud computing services. Network Inventory Advisor helps companies ensure compliance with the myriad of different software licenses with its easy-to-use software tracking features and sophisticated reporting capabilities.</p><figure><img alt="" src="https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/640/0*eWXJCXwHlhDcKje9.png" /></figure><h3>Hardware Asset Management</h3><p>Network Inventory Advisor is also a powerful <a href="https://www.network-inventory-advisor.com/network-inventory-scanner.html">network inventory scanner</a> capable of automatically detecting all Windows, macOS, Linux, and SNMP devices on the network. Besides IT asset tracking, Network Inventory Advisor also supports the tracking of standalone assets, like printers, keyboards, sound devices, and even office furniture.To scan connected devices with Network Inventory Advisor, it’s not necessary to install a scan agent on the scanned devices. What’s more, scanning with Network Inventory Advisor can be fully automated to always stay in the know of any changes that occur on the network.</p><p>Thanks to its <a href="https://www.network-inventory-advisor.com/hardware-inventory.html">hardware asset management</a> capabilities, Network Inventory Advisor helps companies leverage their existing resources in the most optimal manner and strategically plan future hardware purchases to keep up with the competition and achieve a healthy growth rate.

When an MSP gets a new client, they can simply create a separate network in Network Inventory Advisor and make a scan.</p><p>With Network Inventory Advisor, bulk editing of both software and hardware assets is as effortless as it can be. Even those network administrators who manage networks that consist of multiple thousand assets don’t feel overwhelmed when using Network Inventory Advisor.</p><figure><img alt="" src="https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/640/0*5iv6uPmu3267fGO_.png" /></figure><h3>Instant Alerts and Comprehensive Reporting</h3><p>Network Inventory Advisor can send alerts when it detects software and hardware changes, notifying network administrators when something is removed, installed, or replaced on the network. A change on the network may be an early sign of a larger problem, and the sooner the IT staff is aware of the change, the quicker the underlying problem can be solved.</p><p>Of course, not all problems reveal themselves on their own. Some problems are systemic, having to do with network inventory utilization and <a href="https://www.network-inventory-advisor.com/software-license-audit.html">software license compliance</a>. In the worst-case scenario, a problem is revealed during an audit, leading to large financial penalties that might even threaten the very existence of the company.
