Software License Compliance / Management
This is a discussion about Software License Compliance / Management in the Windows Networking category; I am in need of some recommendations for a software package to create a report (csv, excel, etc. ) of currently installed software packages and OS installations on my network. I am aware of the MSIA, but it is limited only to Microsoft products, which DOES help, but may actually create more work than necessary.

The software requirements are as follows:
Sortable/searchable by computername, software title/os
inexpensive/free, even only as a trial version
Something like SMS is out of the question in this instance.
I am currently looking into WebCensus as there is a free 30 day trial, but it is limited to 100 PCs. Has anyone used this package, or something similar? Any recommendations?
Thanks for your input.

OP
Just activated the trial of WebCensus, and it requires an agent be installed on each machine, which I do not want at this time.

I use ocs. I have a startup script that starts the program. Nothing needs to be installed.

OK, that's pretty cool. I'll have to check that out in the lab at some point. Nice find.
