Leaving no questions unanswered

Certain questions come up repeatedly. That’s why we’ve written down some answers here. If your specific question isn’t addressed here, you’re sure to find the answer in our detailed FAQ. If you still have questions, we’d be happy to provide the right information to you in a personal conversation.

JDisc Discovery is far more than a conventional IP scanner. It is a comprehensive network discovery tool that combines agentless or optionally agent-based network discovery with in-depth analysis of infrastructure, cloud services, and directories. These features enable you to create seamless network documentation and gain a complete overview of your entire IT landscape.

Key features at a glance:

  • Automated network inventory with or without agents: reliably detects all devices without manual installation.
  • Vendor-agnostic discovery: identifies devices and systems, regardless of vendor or platform.
  • Detailed hardware and software inventory: our IP scanner provides comprehensive data for your IT asset management.
  • Cloud discovery: provides full transparency for hybrid IT environments (Azure, AWS, Google Cloud).
  • Deep directory service integration: integrates seamlessly with Microsoft Active Directory and Entra ID.
  • Visualizes network topologies: our IP scanner graphically displays complex network structures and dependencies (network topology discovery).
  • Seamless API integration: enables easy connection to your CMDB and ITSM systems.
  • Modular add-ons: provides advanced analytics for networking, security, and more.
  • Flexible licensing models: adapts to meet your individual requirements.
  • Secure data processing: ensures the highest level of security for the storage and transmission of your data.

To meet the diverse requirements for an IP scanner and network inventory, we offer flexible licensing models:

The project license

Our IP scanner is available to you on a monthly basis as a project license, including support from our project team. This license option is ideal for smaller networks or projects with clearly defined time frames.

The annual subscription

With an annual subscription, you can use our network tool for one year. Support from our project team is also included. You can, of course, also purchase annual licenses multiple times consecutively and adjust them as needed.

The lifetime license

With our lifetime license model, you can use JDisc Discovery for an unlimited time. This means you pay a one-time license fee and can use the network scanner for as long as you like!

Optionally, you can also purchase an additional support contract with us, which you can choose to have either for a limited time or indefinitely.

Our IP scanner is designed to detect an extremely wide range of devices, operating systems, and platforms to ensure a complete network inventory.

These include:

  • Windows: all client editions (NT 4.0 editions, Windows 2000, Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7, Windows 8, Windows 10, Windows 11) and Windows Server 2003 through Windows Server 2025.
  • Unix and Unix-based systems: all common Linux distributions, Apple macOS, HP-UX, Sun Solaris, IBM AIX.
  • Virtualization technologies: VMware ESX/ESXi, Microsoft Hyper-V, Nutanix, Oracle VM Server, Xen, Sun VirtualBox, Sun Solaris Zones and LDoms, HP Integrity Virtual Machines.
  • Cloud platforms: Microsoft Azure, Amazon AWS, Cisco Meraki, Google Cloud Platform.
  • Network devices and appliances: Cisco IOS/NX-OS, HPE/Aruba, firewalls, switches, routers, and storage systems (NetApp, Dell, HPE, etc.).
  • IoT and specialized devices: detection via UPnP, mDNS, SNMP, or SSH.

If your system is not listed here, please feel free to contact us. We are sure to find a suitable solution for your IT environment.

We have intentionally kept the setup of our network scanner both simple and fast. As an agentless network discovery tool, there is no need for complex software installation on every single device. Thanks to the guided setup and minimal system requirements, JDisc Discovery is ready to use in just a few minutes. An initial scan for network inventory can be started immediately, so you often receive productive results on the very same day.

A modern IP scanner like JDisc Discovery is a central tool for network discovery, network documentation, and IT asset management. Its main task is to automatically detect, analyze, and document IT infrastructures.

Specifically, JDisc Discovery provides:

  • Comprehensive device discovery: finds all IP-based devices, including connected peripherals such as monitors, docking stations, etc.
  • Hardware and operating system analysis: identifies detailed hardware specifications and operating system versions.
  • Records installed software and licenses as the basis for your IT asset management.
  • Analysis of network structures: documents the physical and logical structure of your network.
  • Inventory of hybrid environments: detects and documents virtualization and cloud resources.
  • Visualization of network topologies: acts as a network topology scanner to graphically display communication relationships and system structures.
  • Agentless operation: operates without installing agents on target systems; agent-based operation will be available as an option in the near future.

The data collected by our IP scanner forms the basis for up-to-date network documentation and effective IT asset management (ITAM). It can be reused in a variety of ways:

  • Reports and dashboards: use integrated reporting functions for inventory, compliance, or management reports.
  • Data exports: export data in formats such as CSV or Excel for further processing in external tools.
  • API access (GraphQL): automatically access all inventory data to create your own scripts or integrations.
  • CMDB and ITSM integration: use CMDB discovery to seamlessly transfer device data, software information, and relationship data to your CMDB, ticket system, or service management solution.
  • Security and compliance processes: use the precise data for vulnerability analyses, audits, and your IT asset management and software license management.

We provide comprehensive and professional support to ensure you can fully leverage the potential of our IP scanner for your network inventory and network documentation.

  • Support via email and ticket system: our experienced JDisc experts handle your inquiries in a structured and timely manner to quickly resolve any technical issues.
  • Configuration check-ups and workshops: we offer comprehensive consulting to review and optimize your JDisc Discovery configuration. This service ensures that your scanning strategy and data quality are optimally tailored to suit your corporate environment.

Since we are constantly developing our software, we can respond extremely quickly to new requirements. However, if a device has not yet been recognized, we will integrate it for you in no time. Thanks to our weekly releases, we ensure that you won’t have to wait long.

No, JDisc Discovery operates entirely agent-free. This means you do not need to install or maintain any software permanently on your target systems. In the future, we will also be offering an optional agent for secure environments.
