IP Host Explorer1.0.0d

IP Host Explorer is a simplistic piece of kit designed to keep track of IP addresses by scanning an IP range.It does not come equipped with complicated features or customization preferences, making it accessible to all types of users, even the ones with no previous experience in networking software.

Portability benefits

As there is no kind of installation involved, you can save the program files in any part of the hard disk and just click the executable to run.Another possibility is to save IP Host Explorer to a USB flash disk or similar storage unit, in order to run it on any computer with minimum effort and no prior installers. What's more, the app does not create new entries in the Windows registry.

Simple interface and clear-cut options

IP Host Explorer clearly does not put emphasis on looks, since its interface is made from a classical window that makes visible all available options. So, you can specify the network address and click a button to scan all hosts in range.The primary window immediately gets populated with any identified hosts and shows their names. Before triggering the scanning procedure though, it is possible to make IP Host Explorer dump active hosts information to an ASCII file. There are no other noteworthy options available here.

Evaluation and conclusion

The tool is very light when it comes to CPU and RAM, so it does not affect the overall performance of the PC. We have not come across any issues in our tests, since it did not hang, crash or pop up error messages. Unfortunately, IP Host Explorer does not integrate rich features. We must also take into account that it has not been updated for a while.
