Tally Systems invented Census Recognition Technology (automatic inventory of PC hardware and software) and first applied the now patented technology in PC Census. NetCensus continues to utilize the same technology. "When we began demonstrating automatic software inventory, it was like showing a magic trick. People couldn't believe that you could accurately detect all applications installed on a PC or server without manually sifting through directories," said Ted Jastrzembski, president of Tally Systems. "Now automatic inventory is a mainstream, mission-critical application. "Inventory products that provide reliable, accurate baselines of desktop asset data are few and far between," said Chris Germann, Senior Analyst at the Gartner Group (company) Gartner Group - One of the biggest IT industry research firms. Address: Connecticut, USA. . "Product developers that partner with service providers and make technology accessible through larger systems are well positioned in the desktop asset management market." To date, over 2,000,000 PCs located in companies around the world have been inventoried, and continue to be inventoried, with Census Recognition Technology. "We use NetCensus to inventory hundreds of PCs here at Central Vermont Public Services Public services is a term usually used to mean services provided by government to its citizens, either directly (through the public sector) or by financing private provision of services. ," said Tracy Adams, manager of computer services Data processing (timesharing, batch processing), software development and consulting services.
