Netformx® Officially Launches AssetXpert™, Empowering Cisco Partners with Flexible Network Discovery and Actionable Insights

New Collection Engine 2.0 for Windows expands discovery options beyond Docker to give customers and partners more flexibility, control, and enriched data for lifecycle success.

SAN JOSE, Calif., Sept. 30, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Netformx® today announced the official launch of AssetXpert™, following a successful trial introduction with Cisco Partners. AssetXpert gives IT solution providers the ability to quickly and accurately assess a customer's actual network state, streamline End-of-Life (EoX) tracking, and unlock insights that drive technology refreshes, security posture improvements, and managed services opportunities.

AssetXpert eliminates the manual effort of piecing together lifecycle and support data by automatically enriching network discovery results with multivendor End-of-Life details, Cisco SmartNet contract status, and other critical insights. Cisco Partners can then use this information to build stronger customer relationships, deliver proof of performance, and maximize Cisco incentives.

"Understanding the true state of a customer's network is critical for baselining, compliance, and planning future architectures," said Jacob Ukelson, CTO at Netformx. "With AssetXpert, Cisco Partners can stop wasting time on manual data gathering and instead focus on helping their customers prepare for secure, AI-driven networks."

Expanding Network Discovery Options with Collection Engine 2.0

During the early trial period, Netformx offered Docker-based network discovery as the primary method of gathering device and topology data. While Docker proved to be a powerful and secure tool familiar to many Network Engineers, Netformx recognized that some environments prefer alternatives.

To meet this need, Netformx developed and is now launching the Netformx Collection Engine 2.0 for Windows. This enhanced tool provides the same comprehensive discovery capabilities as Docker, but in a simplified, guided format that requires no installation. It also empowers end customers to run their own scans and securely share encrypted results with Cisco Partners, increasing trust and flexibility.

Key benefits of AssetXpert include:

• Fast, accurate discovery – Multivendor network inventory and topology mapping in minutes
  
  
• Lifecycle visibility – Automatic tracking of EoX milestones and Cisco SmartNet contract status
  
  
• Risk reduction – Identification of security vulnerabilities and compliance gaps
  
  
• Actionable insights – Enriched data highlighting devices needing refresh, upgrade, or replacement
  
  
• Partner growth – Simplifies earning Cisco Customer Assessment Incentives and maximizing rewards

"With the launch of Collection Engine 2.0, we're giving our partners and their customers more choice in how they conduct secure, non-invasive network assessments," added Jacob Ukelson. "This flexibility ensures AssetXpert can be used in even the most security-conscious environments, broadening opportunities for Cisco Partners to deliver value."

Availability

Netformx AssetXpert is now generally available, with both the Docker and Collection Engine 2.0 for Windows discovery options.
