Spiceworks, which I've covered a few times here, updated their application today. Here are some screenshots of new features. For me, the most notable additions are email alerts (in which you can also send to SMS email addresses for page/text message notifications), better trouble shooting of discovery errors, adding custom categories for devices, changing the display name for a device, and staring out the SNMP community name.

Of course, one of the more remarkable things is that the speed in which they rev'ed the product. Sure, frequent releases are easier both easier for brand new applications and applications that are as "simple" as Spiceworks...nonetheless, frequent releases are a great feature to have in your product.
