Lansweeper Likes & Dislikes
What i like the most about Lansweeper is its discovery capabilities, his price, and his easy initial configuration. The amount of details it gathers about hardware, software, and information with a simple configuration, is very helpfull for us in audits.
It's a good price point for the market, and it will scan most things.
I particulary appreciiate: Comprehensive asset discovery, detailed hardware and software inventory, custom roporting (ex. we built custom reports for license compliance, unsupported OS version, and machines missng specific security patches), security visibility
The main dislike about Lansweeper is the lack of intuitiveness in certain advaced configuration settings. Setting up and managing VLANs can be tedious and time-consuming, and creating or customizing alertas in the database with queries requires mre technical effort than expected. Another limitation is the detection of mobile devices, which is less accurate comapred to other assets types. Improving these areas would enhance the overall experience.
As mentioned above, it comes down to the difficulty with interpreting the data. The product didn't feel modular enough, and when you're scanning and evaluating code across the business it didn't always feel like a smooth fit.
User interface can feel cluttered and dated. It's functional but not very intuitive for managers or less technical team members. Another thing is that for devices that are frequently off-network (ex. VPN users) scanning consistency can be tricky.

Comprehensive asset discovery solution that could be more intuitive in advanced confoigurations
My overall experiencie with lansweeper has been positive, the platform provides a complete asset discovery and inventory solution, with a high capability for network scanning, device identification and integration with other it solutions. The main reason to my positive rating, while the product works well and it is accurate, it could be more intuitive with the querys in the database and customization of alerts. Some menus in the advanced configuration, such as configure and introduce all the VLANS is tedious and slow. The main problem from my experience is the identification of device mobiles information. Overall lansweeper is a solid and valuable solution for IT asset management, it help us to identify any new device connected to our network, but his perfomrnace and the difficulty to customize alerts and the detection of the mobile devices blocks me for give it 5 stars. - Engineering Manager50M-1B USDIT ServicesReview Source
Not just an inventory tool, for mid-sized organizations it fits very well
Overall, my experience with Lansweeper has been very positive, especially considering we're a mid-sized organizzation with roughly 800 employeers and a fairly distributed IT enviroment. Form day one, the biggest value was visibility. Before Lansweeper, we had asset data spread across spreadsheets, AD, and few legacy tools. within a short time after deployment, we had a centralized, continously updated inventory of endpoints, servers, network devices, and installed software. - It AssociateGov't/PS/EdEducationReview Source
Powerful and reliable once set up, with excellent visibility into assets.
Once the system is fully set up, it will provide clear visibility into software usage and assets across the district. The product is powerful and flexible, but the initial setup took time and required reading through the documentation carefully. After getting familiar with the features, it has been reliable and has helped streamline our IT processes. - Elv Supervisor50M-1B USDIT ServicesReview Source

Unparalleled Visibility into your environment.
Gold Standard for locating phantom-IT assets, general asset management, patching progress, and overall observability to your network. I've seen the benefits at multiple organizations that use this product.
