Remember, I'm IT. I are not two smot

Same way as all of the other software like that, ads or enabling buying products through it.

Look at Wave Accounting, for example.

There are a lot of monetization ideas being kicked around. But the obvious one that isn't in any way secret is that the system will almost certainly have a software and tools marketplace built in with automated deployments. So, for example, why buy your AV from someone else, when you can support your favourite hosted application AND get the deployment handled for you.

Easy monetization as most companies need some basics like AV, Office suite, etc.

SS will be perfect for that. Very basic and limited today, but new features every few days.

We are reviewing other systems since it is a medical practice such as Mckesson Inventory (Which comes free if you purchase the medication and office supplies from them).

Snipe IT could do that for you free and open source.

I setup SpendMap for my old company. It isn't free or opensource, but the facilities people absolutely loved it.

Oh and I rarely if ever had to do anything with SpendMap. Their support was absolutely fantastic! We had it for a few years and I think I only touched the servers to update them here or there. The support did all app updates themselves and I just had to be available for support if something went awry.
