While many competitors rely exclusively on agentless methods crippled by remote registry and WMI misconfiguration issues, slow operation (single threaded) or high bandwidth usage (multithreaded), NEWT Professional uses a sophisticated light-weight (500KB) client that's automatically deployed to remote machines without any user intervention.
In combination with our unique SimulScan multithreaded technology it allows NEWT Professional to act like an agentless solution to the user while having many "agentless" benefits.
By default, clients are left on machines for even faster scanning, although Zero Footprint options are included. On the other hand, many products that do use software agents require hours or even days of set up time.
With NEWT Professional one only needs to pick one or many computers and click the "Scan" button. This method supplies information just minutes after downloading. It's a unique, true install-and-scan solution unlike anything else.
