Bewertungen über JDisc Discovery

In Betracht gezogene Alternativen:
Very good product for afordable price.
Kommentare: We use a JDisc discovery for (now mostly infrastructure) asset tracking at our clients premises. And we have over 30 installations and counting.
Vorteile:
We chose JDisc as an discovery tool, because it is agentless, it has "native integration" with our CMDB system and really extensive device and software recognition database and discovery protocols available. All that for a really good price. We use their "Networking add-on" to have a "big-picture" on our network topologies. Notable features like PAM/password manager integrations adds up to the security and usability of the product. It has custom reporting and even Custom discovery scripts if You need it. The support is supper responsive and with deep knowledge in the field, new "unknown" devices could be added just "on request". All that is needed for this task is already in the app. "Builds" are coming on a weekly intervals adding support for new features and new devices .
Nachteile:
The biggest drawback is kind of clumsy install and update process of software. As it uses .NET libraries to be able to provide Windows device discovery it is Windows "Server and Client" architecture software. So for those already used to "git pull" it will be nightmare. Install/config through installer takes up to 30 min depending on "hardware" and even minor build update is actually full reinstall of application. Don't expect to be on a "latest" build if You have more than 1 installation.
Best network discovery i know
Vorteile:
JDisc shows me information about the hardware and software easily and quickly. Thanks to the relational database, I can easily see, for example, which software is installed on which computers.
Nachteile:
Sometimes the menus are confusing and the operation is not consistent.
Discover the Undiscovered
Kommentare: At the end of the day JDISC is a real time-saver and watchguard over your networks changes in structure and configuration. I stopped looking at workplace systems. JDISC is just a few mouseclicks away.
Vorteile:
Stumbling into a unknown and not well documented Network, Jdisc provided me with a fast and nearly complete overall view in hours. But that's only the first step. We use JDISC now to keep track of asset and network changes directly into i-doit CMDB. Beside frequently updates bringing not only bug-fixes but also a lot of support for many common and exotic hard- and software, the outstanding Support has to be mentioned.
Nachteile:
Frequently Updates soon become a challenge, since updates have to be applicationlied manualy; sorry nno in-application-updates. Also I would like to see a linux-based edition.
Straightforward the best tool to get an inventory quickly
Kommentare: Sophisticated tool that gives you a very detailed output about your environment including all your open ports on the network, a list of pending updates, all your Exchange Mailboxes with features enabled and size all in one click
Vorteile:
Best customer support ever. Had unidentified devices on the network, simply did send a SNMP Walk to the support and the devices were detected correctly in the next release A WEEK LATER !! Yes they do releases every week ! They are always open for suggestions
Nachteile:
Really nothing to complain about as the product is evolving fast and all needed functions are included
Best network discovery tool
Vorteile:
Excellent detection of all hardware and software in our network. It finds nearly everything. And those really unusual pieces of hardware are quickly added by the software developers. It's a quality that you rarely see these days in commercial products.
Nachteile:
It only runs on Windows which is rather unusual in our environment. We favor Linux/Ubuntu/Mint.
JDisc Review
Kommentare: Extremly helpful for analysing your infrastructure
Vorteile:
Easy to install and administrate. You have a quick return on invest.The collected data is very helpful for other tools and you can quickly analyse for example JAVA-Installations or worst of all Log4J-Issues.
Nachteile:
There are no Cons for us.We are waiting of finishing the new Webinterface.
Environment discovery in perfect price/value relationship
Vorteile:
The user interface is well designed, intuitive and very responsive. Data that has been gathered is in good shape and correct. Custom reports allow to export any information based on a rich criteria builder. Advanced users can query the underlying database directly as the database schema is available if wanted. A GraphQL API offers a possibility to query data like other REST APIs. The software is continuously updated and brings beside of new features, minor fixes also more patterns for device identification. Users can request new features and questions are answered quickly.
Nachteile:
The web-interface is under development. However, the implementation started not long time ago and is proceeding weekly :-)
Great tools to improve your infrastructure or purchasing needs!
Kommentare: It's a great tool with a lot of features. You can use ist with a lot of other tools.
Vorteile:
The network dependency addon which maps automatically the network with his structure. It increases our amount of documentary work over 60 %. Same on asset side.
Nachteile:
The Software ist very smart, with a Little Training easy to use. Has a lot of possible usecases combined with a cmdb tool. Our main tool to get a nearly automated overview over our infrastructure.
Fast Reporting and Inventory Tool
Vorteile:
-The support reacts extremly fast -Probelms are solved in the next coming releases -Ideas are also implementet in near future releases
Nachteile:
Sometimes we faced problems with the update to a new Version
Discovery? JDisc!
Kommentare: Nice Software, nice People, nice co-customers. High volumes of items get a little expensive, so think before discover!
Vorteile:
It crawls EVERYthing. You get a lot of item-info, but you´ll have to manage that, best before you start discovery - and in line with a CMDB-CMP!
Nachteile:

Best discovery tool have have used so far
Kommentare:
We use JDisc for internal IT as well as on-premise customer systems.
Our customers are always delighted when they receive such detailed and up-to-date information about their systems from us!
Vorteile:
For us, JDisc is the best tool for capturing HW and SW data across a sheer endless number of IT devices. It works extremely fast and reliable. In particular, the customer support is outstanding, you get help at any time, new devices are taken over in no time by the JDisc team into the tool.
Nachteile:
The user interface could be a bit fancier ...
Top product for filling CMDB
Kommentare:
We has to fill a cmdb with our IT infratructure items. And we want to get automatically new devices into it.
This tool saves nearly 1,5 personal ressource for mantaining the cmdb.
Vorteile:
The software fill automated the cmdb. That saves a lot of time and ressources in the IT department to document the Infrastructure.
Nachteile:
Never seen a so good and fast support! Bug or nessesarry changes will be applied into application within 2 Weeks.
Excellent integration, full functionality, requires customization
Kommentare:
We use JDisc to collect data on all the devices attached to our customers network. This information is stored in the JDisc database and easily made available to other applications, such as i-doit (part of our ITSM-Stack). Which we use to manage our clients IT infratsructure. JDisc collects information on nearly everthing, including software, installed components and their connections, provided you set it up right.
One feature i´d like to mention is "Agentenlos". Which let you do everything from JDisc without installing anything on the systems themselves.
The only drawback is the time you need to configure it and the mistakes you can make.
The support is great though and will help you get it right. Enhancements and bugfixes are coming very quickly.
Vorteile:
I like JDisc Discovery because it gets very detailed information from tons of devices in a very short timeframe.
Nachteile:
You need to configure it right.
Great discovery tool
Vorteile:
Discovery of all devices on network. Picked up unknown devices on network very well.
Nachteile:
No web UI. The discovery tool helps with customer whom have no tools in place in their environment.
Now it is already 11 years that we work together
Kommentare: we have been working together for 11 years now. It is very constructive, innovative and always at eye level.
Vorteile:
Reliability, easy to install, high depth of information. Very good and competent exchange with colleagues from JDISC. Adheres to agreements. Simply a good partnership
Nachteile:
I can't think of anything, except that the web frontend is not ready yet ;)
Great Product
Vorteile:
JDisc gets really good, accurate and reliable data; generally beyond what I have seen in other tools.
Nachteile:
I'd like to see a metering/usage functionality in the longer term
JDisc was the right decision
Kommentare:
Using JDisc as the central network inventory tool was the best decision we made.
Why?
JDisc is very scaleable, fast and stable. Use it for small or very big sites between 50 or 1000 and more devices.
JDisc is organized in modules.
We are able to get excatly what we want. There is no need to customize JDisc for retrieving information, we do not need at a certail stage. But we have the posibility to.
The features provided by JDisc allows us to fullfill a lot of requests, which are beyond the functionality of a network inventory tool.
JDisc results can easily be be used by all providors of our customers. So it is an independent data collection.
JDisc provides an interface to integrate function and resultis in other software products.
At least .. fair pricing and a flexible, well skilled and fast support team made it easy to run JDisc.
Basis for a consistent cmdb
Vorteile:
JDisc works agentless and scans entire network areas including snmp devices. Thus almost all devices can be found. Filters are a good way to inventory only those devices that are needed. Support adds unknown SNMP devices within weeks when providing snmp-walks. With the available API and reports, JDisc fills a Configuration Management Database very well.
Nachteile:
One downside is the (legitimate) need to save passwords in order to use JDisc to its full extent and therefore the need to harden the operating system. Agentless can be a disadvantage if there are many "unwanted" devices in the network.
Simply inventory
Vorteile:
JDisc is very simple and limited to what it should do. Many manufacturers also try to cover many other areas and then you easily lose the track. The support of JDisc is very good and fast.
Nachteile:
Devices that have been recorded should perhaps be slightly more customizable
Our choice for a network inventory tool
Kommentare:
We evaluate JDisc as a network inventory tool for one of our customers. Our experience shows that JDisc provides a lot of information for a wide range of professional devices and operating systems.
It is easy to install and use. Fast scanns and a very high rate of discovered devices speed up the process of data collection.
JDisc provides the data collection for other tools for us and is stable and reliable.
We use it now in our own environment without any problems and it is our first choice for customer request.
I would call the support for this tool as "best practice".
Excellent Software!
Kommentare:
We have over 200 devices and have several LANs and VPN connections that made our situation far from a small basic network. Jdisc Discovery was able to discover all the the connections.
Because we had so many types of connections, discovery required some special settings to allow it to see all LANs connected from our VPN. Customer support was there and understood our needs.
Once we had reporting setup for our needs, we were able to find out absolutely everything we needed to know about our WAN, VPN and local computers. I am looking forward to trying the other modules.
Thanks Jdisc!
Vorteile:
VERY easy to install and get basic network information. Looking forward to using the network mapping. Reporting portion is very granular and was able to find everything we were looking for. We don't have a simple network but Customer Support was very personal and best of all very helpful.
Nachteile:
We don't have any time constraints and would not consider the small problems we had with setup an emergency by any means. Customer Supports diagnosis and fix of our issue was correct and fixed the first try. That being said customer support I believe was out of Germany so there was a time lag getting replies to the USA. Because they answered as quickly as they could, I am sure if they had 24 hour support, I would not have anything negative to say about this software.
Best discovery tool that I've worked with
Kommentare: Ever since JDisc was the main discovery solution that we use for the engagements, our life got much easier. Their development team worked close to us in order to enhance the tool to cover the market needs and the new technology with its requirements. The updates were published in a very short timeframe and for that I truly appreciate their customer service and customer focus. JDisc It's easy to install and it has a powerful engine. The amount of data gathered by the tool is truly vast and the speed of doing that is amazing. There's no such thing as a perfect discovery tool, but JDisc surely is getting closer to that level if they keep up the good work done so far.
Best tool to fill the CMDB i-DOIT
Kommentare: We use it to fill our CMDB i-DOIT with SNMP / SSH, so it is a must have :-)
Vorteile:
The support is very good and they never refused my ideas or feedback.
Nachteile:
That it runs only on Windows and the language / gui feels sometimes a bit old and too "nested".
We just love it
Kommentare:
We use jdisc to discover all of our network assets.
Installation and configuration was pretty easy and fast.
The support of the guys from jdisc is excellent, but generally you don´t need them, because the product is running smoothly.
Five stars = perfect!
Multiple customer SAM reviews / Inventory process
Kommentare:
Very efficient inventory tool which scans lots of different flavours of OSEs.
Requires some experience in configuration and use.
Like a real sportscar, you achieve performance but you need to be a good driver.
You have a real support from the JDisc team.
