Instead of GLPI
GLPI alternatives
GLPI combines helpdesk, IT service management, and broad asset inventory in one platform. Teams can route incident and request tickets, manage problems and changes, schedule recurring work, create custom forms, and track SLAs. Its inventory covers hardware, software, licenses, network equipment, certificates, domains, clusters, and databases. Project workflows with Gantt or Kanban views, a knowledge base, reports, reservations, and saved searches add planning and documentation tools. GLPI offers cloud or self-hosted deployment across Android, Linux, macOS, Windows, web, and API. Self-hosted deployment has no licensing fees or user or technician limit, while public cloud starts at €19 per IT agent per month.

Alternatives may fit teams seeking narrower asset management, deeper software-license analysis, network discovery, or employee-facing tools. GLPI’s public cloud specifies 97% annual availability, and private cloud requires at least 25 billed agents. Self-hosting suits organizations with an IT team and specific security or customization needs. Compare deployment, platform coverage, asset and contract limits, barcode support, and licensing costs. Also decide whether you need GLPI’s helpdesk, service workflows, approvals, knowledge base, and employee portal, or prefer a focused asset platform.
