Device42 provides end-to-end visibility to identify dependencies between applications and infrastructure. It gives users detailed insights into even the most complex IT enterprises across a broad range of physical, virtual, cloud, and storage infrastructure including network switching, bare metal servers, chassis and blades, hypervisors, IP subnets, and more.

The solution provides visibility into legacy infrastructure, such as mainframe or midrange, hypervisors, and a vast array of storage providers. Device42 finds everything from mainframe to Kubernetes–including detailed data from physical storage devices. Device42 provides the “you are here” pin on the map to digital transformation.

Device42 also helps in the ongoing management of complex, hybrid IT environments. It includes simple, out-of-the-box integrations with ITSM, automation, and IT management tools such as Jira, ServiceNow, VMWare, Zendesk, PowerBI, Chef, Ansible, Jenkins, Puppet, CloudEndure Migration, and others.

Device42 provides a rich source of auditable data for compliance with SOC 2, PCI, hardware inventory, budgeting and planning. It’s the best way for IT to always be audit ready.

How Device42 Works
Device42 uses WMI for Windows, SSH for Linux, SNMP for network hardware, native API-based discovery for VMware, and F5 load balancers. It also has Netflow, IPMI, and many more ways to find everything in the hybrid IT enterprise. Discover all deployed applications along with their related dependencies, brand names, and version information.

REST APIs and webhooks in Device42 automate workflows and deliver a unified source of truth. Discover relevant details on all devices, applications, and dependencies. With this information, users can easily manage data centers, auto-populate CMDBs, and add details to ITSM tools – all while supporting the most rigorous compliance standards.

Advanced user of Device42
★★★★★
Great product with excellence support!

What do you like best?

I really like the clear structure of Device42.

In addition, I like that it is very easy to work with IP addresses. (Much better than with Excel sheets or something else)

Devices are also designed to make it very easy. these can be cloned from the hardware very well.

I additionally like the ease of managing users. This can be easily controlled through Active Directory (AD).

What do you dislike?

it takes some time to fully understand Device42. So you have to plan more time for the beginning to understand the whole features and possibilities.

Sometimes the system is not the fastest, which slows down the work.

In addition, I would design the power layout differently. The current view is not very clear.

Recommendations to others considering the product:

If you are looking for a new product in the field of documentation, Device42 is a very good choice. It is very well designed and you can add any component and network management. You can easily add and manage new subnets.

What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?

We keep our entire infrastructure in Device42. It's also linked to a CMDB.

We have replaced our documentation with Device42. Now we can look up everything centrally. We had the problem that too often there was wrong information in the old files.
