UPDATED POST (June 14th, 2023) - Diagrams are out of Preview and now generally available.
Hi everyone!
Lansweeper is pleased to introduce a significant enhancement to our IT Asset Management platform that will give you a fresh perspective on visualizing your IT estate. Today, I’m excited to announce our new diagramming capabilities to our esteemed customers and partners. Now in general availability, Diagrams is designed to offer a new angle and enhanced visualization options for your inventory.
At Lansweeper, we recognize the importance of gaining a comprehensive understanding of your IT assets, and we understand that interpreting the complexities of your IT infrastructure can be challenging. That's why we have developed a robust set of diagramming tools and templates that will allow you to explore your IT estate from a fresh perspective, enabling data-driven decisions and improved technology management.
But first, I would like to take a moment to express our sincere appreciation to the remarkable individuals who have played a vital role in shaping our product over the past months. I am referring to our dedicated testers and Community users, whose invaluable feedback has been instrumental in our journey of continuous improvement.
During the Beta and Preview phase, we had the privilege of receiving insightful feedback from you. We actively listened to your experiences, learned from your suggestions, and eagerly incorporated your insights into our development process. Your dedication and commitment have been truly exceptional.
Thanks to this valuable contribution, we are proud to announce the launch not only of the features previewed last January, but also of a set of enhanced tools that will enable our users to go even further. These diagramming capabilities will hopefully enable you to explore and understand your IT estate more easily and deeply. So thank you all!
In addition to lists, reports, and dashboards, the diagramming and mapping capabilities in Lansweeper Sites enhance your experience of understanding the state of your inventory and allow you to discover the relations between your assets with dynamically generated diagrams.
See at a glance the different elements of your network and their relationships. Network topologies focus on the components of your computer or telecommunications network, including firewalls, devices, and routers.
Navigate through the virtual resources available in your inventory, such as hypervisors and virtual machines, reorganized into logical groupings (data centers, clusters, etc.) to help you understand your virtual estate.
Let Lansweeper help you understand the connections between your assets with different types of automatically discovered relationships (SNMP, WMI) and those you’ve created manually in your inventory. Get valuable insights on your relationships to better understand the configurations applied to your network.
It's time for us to share these new capabilities with you. We hope these diagrams will give you a new perspective on your inventory. Check out our new Diagrams section in the Knowledge Base to learn how to master your new tools.
Please note that the diagrams are based on your inventory synched in Lansweeper Sites. Ensure that your installations are properly configured and synchronized so that your diagrams show up-to-date data. Additionally, the necessary SNMP credentials must be added to your installation to facilitate the discovery of relationships between your assets.
Finally, we're all ears! Your feedback is valuable, and we'd love to hear it. Feel free to share in the comments 👀.

Currently we have 1866 assests but when I look at the preview map I get the message that I have over the 20000 limit.
Can you explain how this limit is reached?

Hi Alan (@ayoung),
The limit concerns the number of assets that the diagram attempts to display. As part of the Preview, a limit has been set at 20,000 to allow our development team to monitor the overall performance of these new features, which are now available to all our users. The goal in the future is to increase this limit or even remove it.
What is interesting in your case is that you are very far from the limit mentioned, which does not justify the display of such a restriction.
To help you, I would need to have more information on your environment. This will allow us to give you a concrete answer and to detect a possible grey area that we have not encountered so far. For the sake of confidentiality, and if you are interested in sharing more information with us, could you please contact me in a private message with your details?
Thank you in advance for your answer.

Cannot seem to find the PM envelope icon. I am signed in but do not see it.

We're in the same boat with only 1,849 assets thus far. Our trial is currently expired, however, and we're simply awaiting a license update after placing the order on Friday (that could explain it in our case). Just want to offer you another data point...

Quick update - our purchased license has been applied and we show two active Installations. One map still shows blank and the other still shows the 20,000 asset limit error.

I sent you a private message to let you share more data privately. Thanks!

My portal shows a count of 28 for the category "All Diagrams" yet the vast majority of the diagrams turn up empty. Is that because we need to configure SNMP for each and every asset we want to appear in a map, including Windows workstations & servers? Currently, we only have SNMP enabled for a small handful of network devices, namely switches.

Hi @random_name,
Thank you for your feedback. The diagrams show the data that is available in your Lansweeper Cloud inventory. There are currently two diagram "scopes" to help you visualise the assets in your inventory:
So here are some tips to help you find your way around your diagrams:
I hope you find these tips helpful.

Why will I not be able to see any diagrams? if using IP Locations
