Number of Seats/Users: Lansweeper offers discounts based on the number of users or seats. A higher volume typically leads to a better discount structure, especially for enterprise-level usage.

Commitment to a Long-Term Contract: Discounts are often provided to companies that commit to using the service for a longer period (e.g., 1-year or 3-year contracts). A longer commitment shows Lansweeper that the company is serious and willing to invest in the platform long-term.

No Active Discounts: Companies that are not already receiving other active discounts may have a better chance of qualifying for additional discounts from Lansweeper. Lansweeper reserves discounts for new customers or those not currently under promotional pricing.

Volume or Usage Commitment: Lansweeper offers discounts if you agree to a minimum amount of usage or transaction volume. This could be based on data storage, transactions, or other metrics tied to how much you will use the platform.

Enterprise-Level Negotiation: Companies that qualify as “enterprise” due to their size or complexity (e.g., having large teams, multiple departments, or geographical presence) may be eligible for additional discounts from Lansweeper. Such companies are often in a position to negotiate for better pricing.

Early Renewal or Prepayment: Lansweeper often offers discounts if you renew early or prepay for the entire contract period. This is a common approach to securing a lower price.

Our internal data shows that Spendbase clients find Lansweeper a solid asset management tool. They really like its ability to automatically and continuously scan networks to discover a wide range of devices. Clients appreciate being able to see detailed hardware and software data, which helps them make informed decisions quickly.

Key benefits noted by Spendbase clients include:

• Automatic network scanning that covers both traditional assets (PCs, servers, printers) and less common ones (routers, UPS, IoT devices).
• Detailed reporting and a customizable dashboard. Many clients use the SQL-based reports to track everything from software versions to hardware upgrades.
• Ease of setup for smaller or single-site environments. Many find that getting started is simple even if you have limited IT resources.
• A cost-effective pricing model compared to some major alternatives, making it a popular choice for small to medium-sized businesses.

However, our internal data also indicates a few areas where Lansweeper could improve:

• The user interface could be more intuitive. Some clients mentioned that features like the credential vault and scan queue navigation are sometimes awkward.
• Reporting too relies on SQL queries. If the standard reports don’t meet your needs, you may need to invest time learning database relationships, which can be challenging for those without prior experience.
• Pricing concerns in larger environments. A few clients feel that as your asset count climbs, the cost becomes less attractive.
• Cloud functionality versus on-premise: While the cloud interface is modern and more user-friendly, its growing reliance on cloud capabilities means that the on-prem version might not receive similar enhancements.
• Some deployment tools and integration features, such as remote support and patching, need further development for a more complete solution.

Overall, Spendbase clients believe that Lansweeper delivers a comprehensive view of IT assets in a network, which is critical for effective IT management. Although there is a learning curve regarding report setup and user interface refinements, the tool’s breadth of features makes it a reliable asset management solution worth considering, especially for businesses that value detailed inventory data and broad scanning capabilities.
