Knowing your network is a pretty important task if you’re an administrator, so checking computers’ security every once in a while is a must do.

That’s why SoftPerfect Network Scanner might become a very handy tool on your machine, as it’s able to scan the network, look for shared resources and many more.

The best of all is that it doesn’t need to be installed since it’s just an executable file, so it’s only a matter of seconds until you’re ready to go.

The interface is very clean and user friendly, but it hides so many great things that it will take minutes until you find them all.

The scanning process is pretty intuitive, so the only thing you need to do is to input the range of IPs you wish to scan. Afterwards, you’re able not only to open computers, but also to send messages, initiate a remote showdown operation, send wake-on-LAN signal or start a DHCP or UPnP Device Discovery.

SoftPerfect Network Scanner does a great thing when it comes to handling computer resources, so the machine won’t be slowed down even when doing long scans.

We were amazed however by the rich settings menu that includes options for basically… well, everything. Not to mention that every feature comes with its very own settings, so SoftPerfect Network Scanner is indeed a highly-customizable product.

All things considered, SoftPerfect Network Scanner is one of the best tools in its category, so whether you want it or not, you’ll start using it very soon. You have no other choice if you’re a network guru.
