Fetch software details from remote Windows computers instantly. Agentless, real-time, and 100% free. Audit installed applications across your domain — perfect for license compliance, security audits, and IT asset management.
Every feature is purpose-built for real Windows administration work — designed to save time, reduce disruption, and keep your fleet under control.
Run a fresh software inventory scan on any Windows machine without deploying agents or interrupting users. The tool pulls a complete list of installed applications, including hidden and system software, straight from the Windows registry over standard admin credentials.
Identify unauthorized software, track Microsoft Office, Adobe, and other licensed installs across your fleet. Export results for vendor audits and BSA/IIPA compliance reporting.
Spot rogue installations the moment they appear — unauthorized P2P clients, personal cloud sync apps, or risky browser extensions. Your first line of defense against shadow IT.
See exact version numbers for every installed app — critical for vulnerability triage. Know which machines need urgent patching when a CVE drops for an outdated version.
Scan one machine or hundreds — the tool processes domain-joined computers in parallel, returning consolidated results without dragging on for hours.
Pairs naturally with System Inventory for full hardware + software visibility, and with Currently Logged-on User to map software to active users. All 15 tools live in one download and one sidebar.
From download to first result in five simple steps. No complex configuration, no firewall rules, no additional licensing.
Download and install the bundle on your admin workstation. No agent deployment to target PCs — installation completes in under two minutes and requires no license key.
From the unified console, select Software Inventory in the left sidebar. The tool is ready to query any domain machine.
Choose a single machine for a focused audit, or select multiple computers for a bulk software inventory across departments.
The tool queries the Windows registry remotely and returns a complete, sortable list of installed applications, including version numbers and install dates.
Export the inventory to CSV for audit trails, license reconciliation, or upload to your CMDB and asset management systems.
Run software inventories before vendor audits to identify license shortfalls and surplus. Save thousands by reclaiming unused licenses across your fleet.
Catch unauthorized applications, unapproved browsers, and risky software the moment they appear on a corporate machine.
When a critical CVE hits, instantly identify every machine running the vulnerable version — no waiting for SCCM cycles or agent check-ins.
