Best Discovery and Application Dependency Mapping tool

  • June 08, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Simple and easy-to-use interface with a lot of pre-defined reports available to use and built-in dependency mapping diagram and topology.
What do you dislike about the product?
Current topics in online documentation are in function sequence or classified by function, would prefer to see it in the deployment sequence, for example Overview, Deploy, Manage, Reports. Current documentation table of content: Accounting, API Overview, Appliance Manager, Administration, Applications, Auto Discovery.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Discovery and Application Dependency Mapping reports required for Datacenter migration.

Powerful DC Infrastructure Discovery Tool

  • June 02, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
- Huge amount of tools for autodiscovery your equipment
- Agents can scan devices even over extremely secure networks
- Wide range of additional parameters for assets and devices
- Custom Fields support
- Multitenancy. Flexible setting of permissions
- Lifecycles. From the moment of purchase of equipment to its disposal
- Floorplans. You can add any equipment if you want and see it on the layout
What do you dislike about the product?
- The system seemed like overkill for our tasks
- Not always friendly interface. Probably no longer
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
With this system you can get any information about the location of the device, connected cables, additional information and statuses. Engineers no longer need to do visual audits but simply find equipment in Device42 to get complete info. And with properly configured autodiscovery, we get rid of manual accounting of equipment.
If you don't have enough some features in the UI itself then you can implement small http application yourself and configure receiving data from Device42 via API or DOQL (Device42 query object language) and visulize it in your applications. So we deployed our server room schemes with the necessary set of information
Recommendations to others considering the product:
- If you don't have to use autodiscovering you can create many type of equipment as assets

The Datacenter asset inventory that works the way we want it too.

  • May 27, 2021
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Device42 gives us the power to make mass updates. We are required to keep track of all of our Datacenter's customers racks and equipment and when large amounts of equipment is brought in or relocated we can update our records relitevly fast. Once the data is in the system we can then use that to create visual layouts to verify the data. Having accurate data is essental for providing remote hands services for our customers.
What do you dislike about the product?
Where the mass updates are great there are some things that just can't be added or updated in this manner.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Having the information of all equipment in the datacenter in a easy to locate system make our ability to support our customers much more reliable. We are also providing data connectivity from the WAN Providers and keeping all connections in Device42 gives us the ability have documentation of all connection that are made.

All in one tool that exceeds expectations

  • May 27, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The ability to add subnets and credentials to automatically scan and discover devices on multiple networks. We have a lot of subnets that we need to monitor and update device inventory information as it is changed, moved or updated.
What do you dislike about the product?
A few helpful plugins are not included in the base package / license so appear to be a few core missing features when in fact they are available just as separate addons.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Ever changing and growing inventory that needs to be carefully tracked and inventoried. We find this so simple to use that we spend much less time than we used to on tracking these items.

Highly Customizable Asset Manager for All your IT Needs

  • May 27, 2021
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The Room, Rack, and Device model layouts are some of the best features in any software I've tried. It's like having a lightweight Visio for building server rooms, cable diagrams, and rack elevation diagrams for your IT datacenters.
What do you dislike about the product?
The UI is a bit dated, lacks modern graphic elements (such as different font/color themes).
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Installbase management was the key feature of D42 that we investigated. It does this very well and allows us to retire our old spreadsheet methods for tracking the data in favor of a singular database with some excellent reporting.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I'd highly recommend contacting D42 sales and getting your hands on a Demo. I wasn't initially sold until I got into the product and saw how it interoperated. Additionally, since this runs up in the Cloud, you can quickly provision a Cloud Server to run a POC as the system requirements are relatively moderate.

Great tool to consolidate all of your Infrastructure information

  • March 30, 2021
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
- Quick identification of assets and their locations
- Great virtual view of a physical Data Centers/IDF closets
- Easy discovery of assets and infrastructure data with multiple methods of discovery
- Auto creation of the device mapping and communication paths
- Easy to navigate the user interface
- Exportable and API data feeds to integrate with other ITSM tools
- Great support staff
What do you dislike about the product?
- Unable to get an exportable report of sub components that have changed linked to the device they are assigned to. CPU, memory changes as an example. Data is visible within the application but not in an exportable report.
- Locked down source code makes it difficult to see exactly what commands some discoveries are running when troubling shooting for those that like to dig a little deeper into issues themselves.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Our data used to exist in multiple teams with no organization of how that data was kept. This allowed us to consolidate our physical and virtual devices as well as the network and application infrastructure without having to rely on other teams to keep it updated. We now can walk from a virtual device to the physical host to its location in a physical room, as well as other connected devices. This wasn't possible in our organization before this application
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Make sure you have a plan on how you need to discover your infrastructure. Build out your physical mapping first in the app (room, row and rack) then scans by Device subnet for proper discovery and device identification. Pull physical equipment first (Compute, Network, Storage) so the virtual devices will properly import linked to the physical devices they exist on.This can make a big difference on what type of scan you would use to discover the devices. A blind scan could bring in too much data to fast and you'll quickly become overwhelmed.
