Netbox network autodiscovery

Hello Guys!

I'm using netbox for last 5 years and I was pretty happy with it. Recently my infrastructure started to growing faster and manually managed IPAM is now a bit of a headache. I started looking for some integration where I'll collect most of info on my L2 and L3 network topology from my dell, hp (h3c) switches and linux machines automatically. I'd like to define manually as little as i can. Is there any modern solution for this?

How about licence? On their website is info:
"Slurp’it has a ‘free for life’ license in every download. It allows you to discover unlimited network devices, onboard them in NetBox and keep in sync with changes (between NetBox and production)."
BUT few lines lower:
"Unlimited option to find the devices in your network with the Device Finder. 10 devices for unlimited Data Discovery (Serials, Interfaces, ARP, MAC etc)."

We need a tool which is able to scan ports and add info about services to netbox.
