Several people here on ML performed an evaluation of it and all came to the same conclusion.

Yeah, it predates me and is still liked by the guy(s) that set it up... I managed to get GLPI and fusioninventory going for scanning and inventory / asset management but haven't been able to convince people to move ticketing there from OSTicket.
Beyond that, just updated our base W7 desktop / laptop image and uploaded it to FOG while fighting with windows updates on my W10 laptop.

GLPI looks interesting. I've never heard of it.

It looks like it could be decent, but needs more polish. In looking at the demo a lot of the operational steps are difficult to find and generally rough looking.
-
Dealing with Windows updates taking down sites.
-
I'm moving data around so I can decommission some older servers, with still semi-relevant data.
-
@notverypunny How do you like FusionInventory?
-
Listening in on a monthly call with Citrix and updating VMware templates.

I took need to look into this.
I need to look at SnipeIT as well.

@Dashrender how have you not looked at Snipe-IT yet, we've been discussing it for at least 1 Year plus on this forum alone, and there is a live demo you can play with.
You don't even have to deploy yourself to test the system out.

If GLPI had a check-in/check-out function like Snipe-IT I would still be using it.

I noticed that it didn't have that functionality in the Demo. Just a "set asset to <employee>".

Time - I just haven't given it any yet. Same goes with MeshCentral though that hasn't been a year plus.

Fair enough.
Did @WrCombs ever get those laptops from you, and did you give him guidance on what he was trying to do with them?

Nope - He found that his company will give him an interest free 12 month loan for a new laptop... currently I think he's working on that. Not that the laptop from me couldn't still be useful.

ugh. .
So the whole "I'm broke and bought the cheapest thing in the world for work" turned into "I'm broke but you'll help me finance a laptop!"
WTF. . . why is his job creating and offering loans?!

Apparently during his interview they asked - do you have a computer - yes - check
do you have internet access at home - yes - checkSo they didn't specifically tell him that a requirement of the job is that they must provide their own computer and internet access to provide after hours support.
So when he approached his boss about getting a company issued laptop for on-call situations, the boss said - oh, no we don't do that, a requirement of your employment is to have a and b. So Wr explained the situation about dead computer and the boss said - aww, well, because we want to help out employees, we have this free loan program to assist employees in purchasing a computer.

He should totally not go that route and find a new job ASAP. This is a shit ass company.
