Enhance is pleased to announce the alpha release of Enhanced Network Device Discovery (ENDD). Enhanced Network Device Discovery in conjunction with System Management Configuration Manager 2007 (ConfigMgr) allows for network device to be discovered and added to the ConfigMgr database, thereby enhancing ConfigMgr capabilities as the ultimate resource for all network assets.

ENDD allows IT Managers and Asset Managers to work together by collecting information such as Make, Model, Serial Number, Location and Contact on network devices, for example printers, routers, switches and IP phones to name just a few.

ENDD also allows companies to collect up to 10 additional Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) data fields for each device. This allows clients to collect data that is important to them, which might not have been yet recognized by the Enhansoft team.
