In an increasingly compliance-driven world, immediate access to accurate information is critical to driving down costs and maintaining obligations. The Recon Suite provides a simple, low-cost way to inventory your network devices and computers, including Mac OS 9, iPhone, Mac OS X, and Windows machines. Every application, font, plug-in and computer on the network communicates with, and is documented to, the JAMF Software Server (JSS).
Recon Suite inventories hundreds of inventory objects including: MAC addresses, serial numbers, and purchasing information for each computer. Integrating Recon with Active Directory or Open Directory, IT can associate each employee with the appropriate machine. Integrating with Apple’s Global Service Exchange (GSX) allows for automated population of purchasing and warranty dates.
Once inventory data has been gathered, it can easily be exported to Excel, Numbers, or other SQL databases and XML-driven systems. By offering fifty inventory templates and the ability to create custom inventory reports, the Recon Suite allows for thousands of reporting possibilities. In addition, web-based access makes viewing inventory data simple from any device that supports a browser.
The Recon Suite is an effective introduction to the world of client management, solving immediate problems and providing a framework for the additional functionalities of life-cycle management. The Recon Suite works cross-platform, reporting on both Macintosh and Windows machines, to build a comprehensive database of your assets.
