Solved: Flexera Agent vs Nexthink vs Intune

HPNZNB · ‎Jun 26, 2023

Hello Flexera Experts,

To compare with Nexthink and Intune, could anyone share the knowledge of the advantage to have FlexNet Inventory Agent installed on laptops?

We have the Intune and Nexthink deployed and would like to see what benefits/additional values we can get from Flexera agent.

Thanks!

In general, data gathered by the FlexNet inventory agent will give better insight into software that is deployed than most other tools. Many of these benefits are most evident when considering server-based software, but particularly when comparing against Nexthink and Intune you may well also see more comprehensive results using the FlexNet inventory agent on end user devices too.

The following post has some discussion on this topic: The big choice for gathering inventory: the FlexNet inventory agent or tool "XYZ"?
