Advance from homegrown assets to professional DDI.

Just as no two networks are the same, not all homegrown IP address management solutions are created equal. Some are straightforward spreadsheet-based creations, others are simple flat file databases, while yet others are highly sophisticated scripted inventions containing complex dependencies and considerable business logic.

In the same vein, a range of different motivations exist for enterprises looking to move from homegrown to commercial solutions. Most commonly, the search is on because network teams want to gain flexibility, speed up workflows through automation or reduce configuration errors through robust role-based access management. Network teams may be battling with an uncompliant inherited legacy database, or be thrown in at the deep end with a rapidly expanding network. Whatever the motivation, there is no reason to exacerbate challenging situations by dismissing a homegrown asset.

If you’re looking to replace your homegrown solution completely, the Micetro by Men&Mice software solution deploys on top of your existing DNS and DHCP infrastructure, granting you the tools you lack for efficient IP Address Management, such as:

If, however, you’re looking to retain the business logic built into your homegrown solution, but add critical tools and functionality, Micetro's powerful overlay architecture allows for unparalleled flexibility of integration through our API. Instead of turning your network upside down and inside out, Men&Mice DDI lets you transform it gradually and on your own terms, helping you to create the professional IP Address Management environment you want, but with the custom-built logic you need.
