Show HN: Relinx – new kind of Asset tracking – CMDB
- mritchie712 6y agoPricing?
- jelnur 6y agoThanks for your interest in Relinx! Relinx is and will be free for personal use. "Corporate" features like Workspaces, Sharing, Permissions, etc will be added soon and based on a monthly subscription about 5$ per user/per month
- zcw100 6y agoCan you say what database you're using? If I were to guess this is an application specific UI over something like Neo4J although it's not very specific and seems quite general.
- jelnur 6y agoDatabase is PostgreSQL. I designed it to be general and flexible to be used in different fields
- bberenberg 6y agoI think the hard part of asset management is getting the existing data into the tool, and then keeping it accurate. What are your plans to address this?
- jelnur 6y agoYou are right. We'll add Import data and also expose API to automate this task
- tatersolid 6y agoYou should first build agents that run on clients, or tools that remotely gather this inventory info via the network. If you’re thinking manual data entry will be the primary use case for an asset control /CMDB, you will lose badly in the marketplace.
- aeberhart 6y agoThe problem is the support matrix which is crazy in this area. I think ServiceNow did pretty well without having too many adapters (of course now they have quite a few - https://docs.servicenow.com/bundle/orlando-it-operations-management/page/product/discovery/concept/c_DataCollectedByDiscovery.html https://docs.servicenow.com/bundle/orlando-it-operations-man...). So if the product is easy to use, reasonably priced, and has the ability to schedule data imports, why not?
- jelnur 6y agoYes, the focus now is to validate the concept and make an easy-to-use and flexible product
- jelnur 6y agoThanks for your valuable feedback! Yes, you're right. But for now I choose to make the product exceptionally easy and flexible (even with manual data entry). Automation can be added later, after concept is validated.
