What differentiates Device42 from other similar products?
I have not reviewed similar products to compare them.
What is your favorite aspect of this product?
The automatic discovery of so many aspects of computer systems.
What do you dislike most about this product?
When I used it 4 years ago we would occasionally have a remote node stop responding and have to reinstall it.
What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?
At least get a demo of what it can do that way you can include it in your internal discussions surrounding migrating large, complex applications. This product will help ensure you don't forget a database or server attached to a device BEFORE you start migrating.
