Centennial Software, the leading independent developer of network discovery and IT asset management solutions, today announced the launch of Centennial Discovery 4.52, the latest version of its award-winning IT auditing and tracking software.

For companies with diverse IT infrastructures, enhancements to the Unix and Mac agents brings them in line with the high levels of audit already enjoyed by Windows users and ensures a consistency of audit data across all platforms and sites. Auditing new machines is also faster, with a new one-click agent deployment option.

To further reduce the ongoing administration of Centennial Discovery, the new version also introduces the option of auto-updating client agents, which allow client updates (either full or partial) to be performed directly from the central Control Center.

Glenn Stephens, Centennial Software's executive vice president, commented, "The goal for Centennial Discovery 4.52 was to create a solution that met the needs of real-world networks, not just testing environments. This meant a lot of time spent talking to Noun 1. talking to - a lengthy rebuke; "a good lecture was my father's idea of discipline"; "the teacher gave him a talking to"

"Our enhanced client agents and updated software recognition engine ensure that Centennial Discovery continues to offer the most complete network audit possible, while development on the Control Center means that Centennial Discovery remains the easiest IT audit solution to install and manage."

In recognition of the growth in thin client popularity, another key development in Centennial Discovery 4.52 is the ability to recognize and locate thin client terminals on the network -- correctly distinguishing them from standard PCs and laptops.

With Centennial Discovery 4.52, partners now have more flexibility than ever to edit the look of user interfaces to suit their own applications.
