New Version of Alloy Discovery Released

Alloy Software rolled out a new release of Alloy Discovery, a network inventory solution that enables users to detect, diagnose, and manage hardware and software assets.

This new release is focused on increased security, reduced management and new ways to maximize the potential of IT professionals.

The complicated nature of today’s business demands for full visibility of an organization’s IT infrastructure, down to individual details of every computer, printer, router, and network switch. Alloy Discovery has long provided the ability to identify computers, printers, routers and other network equipment, and collect a wealth of essential information for troubleshooting issues, evaluating risks, and planning for system upgrades and replacement.

The new release of Alloy Discovery features new and improved tools that enable network administrators to:

- Gain full visibility of port utilization on network switches and routers using the end-to-end Port Analyzer.

- Reduce security risks and management overhead with the new User Authentication mechanism.

- Optimize Alloy Discovery licensing and reduce associated costs with the new Technician Utilization Chart.

In addition to these new features and enhancements, this new version includes many usability and performance improvements.

“Organizations today are managing very complex IT environments that rapidly evolve and grow. With this new release we extend our network inventory solution to help IT professionals meet the demand for sustaining such growth,” said Ivan Samoylov, CTO of Alloy Software. “Alloy Discovery continues to provide an accurate account of networked assets, their configuration details, and their relationship, helping IT organizations tackle a wide range of daily challenges throughout their operations.”
