In their own words
GLPI
GLPI is an IT management platform for helpdesk tickets, asset inventory, and service management. Users can create incident or request tickets and assign them to a group, profile, or individual. Its service workflows include problem and change management, planning, recurring tickets, statistics, and custom forms. Asset records cover hardware, software and licenses, network equipment, certificates, domains, clusters, and databases. Other tools include project workflows with Gantt or Kanban views, a knowledge base, reservations, reports, and saved searches. GLPI offers eight profile types and standard or self-service interfaces; its self-service interface is free for end users. Organizations can choose cloud or on-premise deployment. The public-cloud offer has a 45-day trial without obligation or a credit card. Public Cloud costs €19 a month per IT agent, with one billed agent minimum; Private Cloud costs €21 a month per agent and requires at least 25 billed agents. The FAQ says on-premise GLPI has no licensing fees or limit on users or technicians.
LOGINventory
LOGINventory discovers and documents hardware, software, configurations, and permissions across IT networks. Its core discovery is agentless, using WMI/RPC, SNMP, or SSH; an Offline Agent can cover Windows, Linux, and macOS devices outside the local network. Coverage includes Windows, Linux/Unix, macOS, SNMP devices, hypervisors, Microsoft cloud services, AWS virtual machines, and Exchange. The maker says the product can capture up to 1,117 individual values per Windows device by default. The Inventory Edition covers network inventory; the SAM Edition adds license management, software usage measurement, target-versus-actual comparisons, and compliance reports. It runs on the customer's infrastructure and stores inventory data in a local SQL database; the maker says inventory data is not transmitted to it. The optional LIA assistant sends requests through Azure OpenAI with automatic anonymization and can be disabled. The server requires Windows 10/11 or Windows Server 2016–2025 (x64) and SQL Server 2012 SP4 or later. Pricing includes a free plan, Inventory360 at €6.50 per year, and a 30-day trial; listed prices exclude VAT.
