Provide error logs via web
Provide a way to display error log information via the web interface. This is especially important when you manually poll and it fails. Unless you followup and dig into the event log, you don't know if it failed.

Add security access
By default it seems the Netpoint web site is wide open. I think it should be the other way around. By default it should be restricted to administrators using integrated authentication or even basic. Netpoint users would have to be granted access to the web interface. I would even take this so far as to include roles: admins, view-only, restricted etc.

Make hardware inventory optional.
Netpoint makes an excellent software license management platform. Having the ability to "turn off" the hardware inventory would speed up the time it takes to inventory managed systems, and would present less "clutter" since we could focus only on software.

Allow polling by subnet, or only search for new machines.
On larger networks, spread out with remote offices, it can take from 30 minutes to two hours to poll a machine. Being able to only search for new machines, or run a scan on a specific subnet, would cut the time drastically and prevent having to restart (and rerun 5 days worth of polling) if the process fails.
