Product overview

Category	Product capabilities
Product website	Device42
Product certifications AWS Competency Program competencies and other certifications	AWS Migration and Modernization – Discovery, Planning, and Recommendation
AWS Marketplace Link to subscribe or download	Device42 on AWS Marketplace
Tool deployment model Product can be SaaS-based or customer-deployed	Servers deployed on AWS (customer VPC) Servers deployed on premises in customer environment
Compliance	Because Device42 is deployed within the customer environment, many of these compliance standards are not required, such as Federal Risk and Authorization Management Program (FedRAMP) and General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). As a result, Device42 meets the standard.
Service model	Full self-service – Deployment, management, and maintenance can be done by the customer or end-user Self-service with vendor support – Deployment, management, and maintenance can be done by customer or end-user with the option of vendor support Managed service (including partner-enabled service) – Deployment, management, and maintenance require professional services
Pricing model	Subscription
