Spiceworks

I've been meaning to post for several weeks but I've been overwhelmed with work. Anyhow, I had been searching for a network management tool that gave graphs of bandwidth utilization using SNMP, but I was also hoping to manage Windows servers, and look at things like hard drive utilization, and event notification. After testing offerings such as groundwork, nagios, what's up gold, and solarwinds I finally found something that met my needs and budget.

Spiceworks is a network managment, basic network monitoring, notifications and even help desk. I have the ability to perform inventory of the enitre network and do queries against almost any criteria, from service packs, to software applications, to memory installed etc. I've had a great time using it and I'm learning more about it by the day.

Highly recommended.
