Belarc is a US company based out of Maynard, MA.  If you are looking for safe and easy to use the program, Belarc Advisor is the one.  Belarc is used by many large and well-known entities including the US Marines and the FAA.  Belarc is also a member of the Center for Internet Security or CIS.  This allows Belarc customers the ability to monitor things such as:

They allow certain charities the ability to obtain a license at no charge in certain circumstances.

Hardware, identifying both authorized and unauthorized hardware.

Software, identifying both authorized and unauthorized software.

Vulnerabilities, monitoring both on-premise and cloud-based, for products offering cloud storage, system environments for any vulnerabilities.

The Belarc Advisor keeps all your information out of the cloud and instead creates a local web page that will show you the information you need.  The file itself is very small and fast to download and easy to use, even by someone who is not overly computer savvy.

The webpage you are presented with is easy to understand and very informative.  Belarc Advisor allows you to keep a very close watch on your computers inner workings as well giving you the ability to find general computer information you might need all in one spot.  One negative I have found is the web page it provides does seem to have a bit of advertising that is sprinkled throughout, but it is not overly invasive.

Overall I think the product is very useful and would highly recommend to anyone regardless of their computer skills.
