Spiceworks is enabling ‘Social IT’ by offering small-to-medium sized businesses (up to 1,000 employees) free network management software integrated with a rapidly growing Facebook-like community of IT professionals. As of September 2010, more than 1 million small business IT professionals worldwide use Spiceworks to collaborate and manage everything IT – from cloud-based services to on-premise technology products. Currently, the Spiceworks user community supports 37 million workers, manages 63 million computers and devices, and spends nearly $200 billion annually on technology products and services.
It is the first business application to embed crowdsourcing and community collaboration features directly into an IT professional’s daily workflow.
Spiceworks is supported by displaying relevant, non-intrusive ads on topics that are useful to IT professionals.
