As of Lansweeper version 10.4, the default installation of Lansweeper will immediately create a link to Lansweeper Cloud, instead of on-premise.
Cloud is a new way to access Lansweeper using a centralized interface.
This cloud-hosted platform offers Lansweeper functionality that already exists and introduces many new features. Some new features include centralized Lansweeper access from anywhere, complete user interface redesign, multi-tenancy options, database aggregation, scopes and permissions system, redesigned report builder, asset API, and more.
However, there are specific scenarios where you don't want to connect to Lansweeper Cloud and need the installer to work the traditional way (Lansweeper Classic), installing and linking to on-premise.
The Lansweeper installer can be used to link installations with the Cloud site, but it can also be run in Classic Mode. This will allow you to:
- install extra scanning services.
- deploy the database to SQL Server.
- host the web console on-premise.
When using the Lansweeper installer in classic mode, an installation can later be linked to the Cloud site following these steps.
