ManageEngine OpUtils review
A mature on-premises IPAM tool with discovery, switch mapping, and network utilities.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
ManageEngine OpUtils is an on-premises network management toolset for IT and network teams that need IP address management, device discovery, switch-port visibility, and network utilities. It supports IPv4 and IPv6 subnets and runs on Windows and Linux. Its feature set suits small on-premises teams that want discovery and monitoring in one product, particularly where DHCP, DNS, Active Directory, and switch data are already part of the environment.
Pricing is organized into Free, Professional, and Management editions. The Free plan provides basic IP and network scanning, ping and discovery utilities, and limited management scope. Professional costs $138 annually for 250 IPs and switch ports and adds IP address management, switch-port mapping, rogue-device detection, and 30+ network tools. Management costs $159 annually for the same capacity and adds full DDI management. A 30-day free trial is also available. The product integrates with Microsoft DHCP and DNS, Cisco Meraki, Cisco ACI, Cisco DHCP, Palo Alto DHCP, Linux ISC DHCP, Infoblox, and Active Directory.
OpUtils covers a wide range of operational tasks: automated subnet and network scanning, connected-device discovery, DHCP and DNS monitoring, scheduled scans, alerts, reports, and tools for Ping, SNMP, DNS, traceroute, and port scanning. Its 1996 founding year supports a mature positioning, while its on-premises deployment will appeal to teams that prefer local network management. Organizations seeking cloud-first operations, more automation-oriented workflows, or AI features should consider alternatives. OpUtils is a practical fit for teams prioritizing broad discovery and network utility coverage over a cloud-native platform.
