How it worksThe client computers of your network collect all the information you selected and write it in XML files. That information is then saved into application’s database, which enables the easy management of very large and heterogeneous network with nonpermanent connections. Database utilization lets you keep a history of the changes as long as you need.Export Network Inventory consists of two modules: The ENI Agent module and the Administrator's Application. When a user logs into the network, the logon process will execute the logon script specified for that user. This logon script will launch the ENI Agent that collects information about the user's computer and writes the output to the COMPUTERNAME.XML file in the shared data store folder. This folder can be located on a network drive, an FTP server, etc. Different computers on the network can place data into different folders, which can be convenient for large networks. Thus, the entire information on a computer’s software and hardware is updated after each reboot of the computer. When the Network Administrator runs the Administrator's Application, this program reads the user information files from this data store folder and stores it in the database. All the information can be easily viewed and managed from the Administrator’s Application.
Lightning Fast Reporting is essentialYou can export information from the internal database to almost any industrial standard databases such as MS SQL, Oracle, MySQL, Interbase and also MS Access, MS Excel, ODBC-compliant databases and HTML files. The application also allows you to collect asset information on computers and networks located anywhere by FTP protocol or email. Moreover, Export Network Inventory will provide your organization with exhaustive and detailed reporting about all of the hardware and software on all of the computers on your network.
