What is Lansweeper?

Lansweeper is an IT asset management solution that provides network discovery of all connected users, devices, and software within the IT estate. Lansweeper's device recognition capabilities provide complete visibility across the entire IT estate, in one centralized IT inventory.

Lansweeper automatically and continuously discovers IT assets across infrastructure — servers, laptops, desktops, virtual & cloud machines, networks devices and IoT assets— in order to create an always-accurate, up-to-date inventory with detailed and granular IT asset data. Not only the hardware specs, but also the user data and installed software are gathered in one central repository.

Lansweeper also discovers devices that only briefly touch the network, as well as shadow IT and forgotten, idle devices, identifying them accurately.

Key Benefits

  • Boost Productivity: Automates recordkeeping and reporting.
  • Improve Security: Identifies risks, vulnerabilities and non-compliance issues.
  • Optimized Costs: Reveals needless expenses and manage IT more cost-effectively.
