Recon is a client application that completes its inventory in 45 seconds. No more clipboards. No more hand cramps.
This application gathers an accurate inventory of all your network devices and computers including Mac OS 9, Mac OS X, and Windows machines. Every application, font, plug-in, peripheral, and device on the network is documented and communicated to the JSS. It also logs MAC addresses, serial numbers, purchasing information, and allows you to associate employees with computers by entering a small amount of personal data. In a larger environment, Active Directory or Open Directory can be used to help associate personal information with computers. If you're struggling with unauthorized software, Recon will find it in any directory on the computer.
Recon uses no computer or network resources until it delivers information to the JSS based on the schedule you've created. After delivering its information, Recon sits dormant until the next execution time to spare your network from unnecessary traffic. This robust inventory capability delivers both the big picture and the granular detail needed to inform IT and business decisions.
