FING is the best.
I was looking for such an app that can monitor my different networks located remotely and show on my mobile their online / offline status without setting up heavy hardware servers or high load monitoring systems. I found FING, it was 100% what i was lookin for.
It does great job for me.
I have installed fing desktop on all my remote networks on simple 24/7 powered on PCs and setup all devices in respected networks (name them, model update, assign to users etc), the rest of info is collected by FING (mac address, ip, internet speed etc).
This setup network scanner is now visible in my FING mobile (Android) app.
The feature set is so robust that you can setup a low cost desktop computer and load it with FING Desktop, it will scan the network for all online devices on that subnet and makes a list, you can then edit that list with precise model / name / comment / assign to user. this way you can see the user is in the premises and which fixed device is online.
FING can also check security vulnerabilities of your network.
You can check hidden cameras on the network.
Install mobile app and get all scans right on your palm.
What i miss is:
1.wifi scanner can also in main FING desktop menu other than tools so a remote wifi scan can be initiated. (a must have feature)
2.Initiate remote refresh scan from mobile app.
Almost all free features are enough to kick you start and up for running the network.
I strongly appreciate the developer for making such an app and encourage users to go premium to support FING.
