**What do you like best about Network Detective Pro?**

One of the best parts of ND pro is the ability to document our customers. It gives a great overview and helps a lot during the documentation process, especially when we take in new customers. 
It's very easy to set up and can be run "on-prem" without uploading data to the cloud which is important for some of our customers.

I use network detective pro almost every day and it has saved me a huge amount of time over the past year.

I'd say the only negative thing about ND Pro is that the application is slow. Other than that I love everything about it.

I wish the reports were a little more customizable in appearance.  While we can control the branding much of the appearance is very much baked in and unchangable.

  ### 13. Network Detective Pro - A Review

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Computer & Network Security | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** March 18, 2024

**What do you like best about Network Detective Pro?**

Network detective is such an easy application to use that also provides great insights in the vulnerabilities found on your network or workstations. I use network detective on every new client we bring in to get a baseline of their infrastructure. It is easy to implement and integrate as the executable can be run anyway. Customer support always goes above and beyond when needed. I use Network Detetice Pro whenever we onboard a new client and frequently use it on existing clients to perorm checks and identify areas of improvement.

**What do you dislike about Network Detective Pro?**

No downsides that I have experienced while using Network Detective Pro.

**What problems is Network Detective Pro solving and how is that benefiting you?**

It allows us to scan and identify issues on a client's network right out of the box. This allows us to get the data we need quickly and efficiently. When a client asks us if we can scan their network, we are now able to do it ourselves and only have to add necessary info before the app does its thing. This is helpful as I can complete other tasks whle the scan is running.

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Jon  V. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 03, 2023

NDP allows for easy use by allowing scans to be completed ad-hoc on the devices that are needing to be scanned. These results are then imported and combined into an easy to follow report that can be made client facing with little adjustment.

Some of the options for deploying this to multiple devices seem hit or miss. If the enviroment is not setup exactly as NDP would like, those options can often fail which results in a requirement to either touch or connect to each device that will reqire being scaned.

is an excellent basic tool to detect the devices that are in the network, the installation of network detective is extremely easy, the use of it if it is somewhat complicated but with the reading of the manuals that the official website provides you can perform the modules that you want to use, in my case the modules used were Network Assessment and security Assessmen, it brings relevant information that helps to know what errors there are in the network, help with inventory control.

**What do you dislike about Network Detective Pro?**

what I do not like about the tool is that it has a somewhat complicated configuration at the server level, since there were many problems when enabling the rules that were required for the scan to be completed 100%. It brought many problems when configuring them. also the tools like network Detective data collector indicated that the firewall rules were not active and it turned out that it was. I need to discard those teams and continue with the scanning of the network.

**Recommendations to others considering Network Detective Pro:**

I recommend the tool for basic use of network discovery, and to be assessment, since it has very basic functions and the reports they give are not always very clear or 100% verifiable but it helps to get some information that is necessary.

the tool is used to detect the assets of our clients' networks and even ours, with this tool we also want to give an example of how to detect some compliances and vulnerabilities that can be obtained and then give way to other more advanced tools. scans.
