Choosing well
Choose a deployment model
The listed deployment choices include web and self-hosted software, plus Windows, Linux, macOS and API access. Match the model to your infrastructure and administration needs.
Check for an Android app if mobile access matters on a Xiaomi, Redmi or POCO device. Do not assume a web listing means a dedicated Android app.
Check asset discovery
Automated discovery is a comparison point in this category. Confirm how a product finds hardware and software records and how those records feed your asset inventory.
Consider whether your team needs browser access, an API or a self-hosted setup alongside discovery tools.
Review licence controls
Software asset management and licence compliance are listed comparison areas. Look for coverage that fits the software you need to track and the compliance checks you must perform.
If you need to read or change the code, check the tool's licence and whether open-source code is available.
