March 8, 2005 - Never without by Daniele Muscetta, Product Rating: 5/5: Absolutely the best ratio between functionality and cost effectiveness. Amazing scanner that checks for the most important things to look at on a Windows Network, its effectiveness lies in the close integration with the patch management process, and in the overall simplicity (where the best things in life are usually also the simple ones).

October 17, 2003 - GFI LANguard Network Security Scanner Product Rating by Don Young, Product Rating: 5/5: For the price one of the best scanning software packages around. I only used the Network Security Scanner and have not had a chance to eval the rest of their products.
October 13, 2003 - Security by Michael Ikhane,: This program is so cool!
June 18, 2003 - Awesome Tool!! by Zach Crawford,: I've been using this product for about a year and it has been great to see the updates GFI has made. I can patch/hotfix, report, audit, and even script. Awesome for small-medium size enterprises!
June 9, 2003 - Good stuff! by digger,: I tried this baby, works just perfect. It performs range scans and single IP scans. Lists the O.S and all open ports on the target system. The best part is the SNMP walk. It alerts that this optin is abailable and should be turned off. And you can even open shared folders on the network by double clicking the shared drive. But the dictinary attack and the passwrod probing only works for Win98 systems ONLY and not the later versions. But overall, its a must have tool (THUMBSUP)
