There is a big diffrence....

Servicenow SCCM This will being in all Windows devices and associated software information and populate cmdb with discovery source as SG-SCCM. Sccm cannot discovery other devices apart from windows. Its  a windows tool utilized in servicenow to fetch info via JDBC SQL Quries and write the info in cmdb tables...

Were as > ACC-V is limited to operating systems and devices. ACC-V) is an Agent installed on your Windows , Linux, or macOS servers to collect host data. it uses Ruby scripts that execute OS Query commands and OS-specific commands to gather the information. You can discover data from various file systems and storage devices, TCP connections, running processes, and other information about target hosts.

Hi Sohail,

Thanks for replying..  i am aware about these differences but what m looking at is- what is the difference in terms of the data that comes from both... is there any benefit of ACC over SCCM or vice versa.
