Device42 vs itemit

Device42 provides agentless discovery, asset management, and dependency mapping for data center, cloud, and hybrid IT environments. Its scope includes CMDB, DCIM, ITAM, IPAM, password management, and application dependency mapping, in a self-hosted deployment. It can discover network devices through SNMP and cloud resources across AWS, Azure, Google Cloud, Oracle Cloud, and OpenStack.

For data centers, its visual models cover buildings, rooms, racks, cabling, and patch panels, with power and temperature heat maps. Core includes discovery, inventory and asset management, integrations, REST APIs and webhooks, warranty and SSL certificate management, cable and password management, and IPAM. Device42 also tracks software licenses, contracts, and barcodes, and lists more than 30 integrations. Licenses count devices with IP addresses; non-IP assets do not count, and user seats are unlimited. If the device limit is exceeded, the software keeps running but stops collecting additional information until the license is increased. Pricing is available on request, and a free trial is offered.

itemit is cloud-based asset tracking software for locating and managing equipment across a team. Assets can be tagged with QR codes, barcodes, RFID, or GPS trackers, with scans updating their last-seen location. A booking system records reservations and who has each item, helping teams avoid double bookings. Asset profiles can hold photos, documents, receipts, and manuals; the software also supports audits, custom reports, and data exports. Its iOS and Android apps can access asset data offline, and the product is listed for Android, iOS, macOS, web, and Windows. The REST API is a Pro add-on and is included with Industrial. Slack is listed as an integration, while Xero is marked as coming soon. Plans cover up to 10,000 assets, with a quote requested for larger collections. Starter is positioned for small teams, Pro for whole-team tracking, and Industrial for larger organisations seeking automation. There is no free plan, but a 14-day trial does not require a credit card. Pricing starts at £33.25/mo (annual).
