GLPI

GLPI is three products in one: asset inventory, an ITIL service desk and a CMDB that links them together. That breadth is why it turns up across European public-sector IT more than anywhere else. The core is GPL and free, with no asset or user ceiling.

Self-hosting means PHP and MySQL, and the inventory side expects agents deployed to endpoints. Plan real setup time. GLPI is configurable to the point of being fiddly, and the default interface shows its age. The payoff is that you stop paying for three separate SaaS products.

GLPI Network is the paid layer from Teclib. Self-hosted subscriptions run from EUR 100/mo (about $110) for 10 agents to EUR 4,500/mo (about $4,900) unlimited, and cloud starts at EUR 19/user/mo (about $21). That buys exclusive plugins, automatic updates and support.

The catch is the plugin split. Some connectors live only behind GLPI Network, so the free version can leave you writing glue you assumed was included. Check the plugin you need is in the free tier before you commit.
