About Advanced Port Scanner

Advanced Port Scanner scans computers on a network with multiple threads, lists the open ports it finds and retrieves the versions of programs running on them.

Found resources such as HTTP, HTTPS, FTP and shared folders can be opened directly, and it can connect to machines over RDP and Radmin. It also offers Wake-on-LAN, remote shutdown and running commands on a remote computer. It is a separate product from Advanced IP Scanner by the same developer.

  • Quick access to found HTTP, FTP and shared folder resources
  • Wake-on-LAN and remote shutdown built in

Alternatives to Advanced Port Scanner

Compare all

Software that can replace Advanced Port Scanner for an important use case, and what changes if you switch.

  • Nmap

    The network mapper: find out which hosts are up, which ports are open and what is listening on them.

    Nmap adds OS fingerprinting and a scripting engine, runs on Windows, macOS and Linux, and uses a custom non-OSI licence instead of closed freeware.

  • Angry IP Scanner

    A fast, friendly IP and port scanner that needs no installation and runs on Windows, Mac and Linux.

    Angry IP Scanner is open source under GPL-2.0 and runs on Windows, macOS and Linux, but finds hosts and open ports without identifying program versions.

  • Zenmap

    The official cross-platform graphical interface for the Nmap network scanner.

    Zenmap gives a graphical front end to Nmap on Windows, macOS and Linux, with saved scan profiles and scan comparison, but needs Nmap installed.

  • SoftPerfect Network Scanner

    A multi-threaded IPv4 and IPv6 scanner that finds network devices, open ports and shared folders.

    SoftPerfect Network Scanner requires a paid licence, runs on Windows, macOS and Linux, and queries devices over WMI, SNMP, HTTP, SSH and PowerShell.

  • RustScan

    Discover open ports with a configurable scanner written in Rust.

    RustScan is an open-source GPL-3.0 command-line port scanner for Windows, macOS and Linux that supports follow-up scripts, with no graphical interface.

  • Naabu

    Discover listening network ports with a command-line scanner.

    Naabu is an MIT-licensed command-line port scanner for Windows, macOS and Linux with several scan methods and optional Nmap integration, but no graphical window.

  • masscan

    Scan large sets of IP addresses for open ports.

    masscan is an AGPL-3.0 command-line scanner for macOS and Linux built for large address sets, so Windows users lose the native graphical tool.
