teemIP

teemIP is an open-source IP address management and infrastructure inventory platform for organizations that need address space tied to operational records. It is a strong fit for SMEs, public bodies, hospitals, telecom operators and integrators that require auditable workflows and control over hosting, but teams seeking advanced active DDI should validate its scope first.

Overview

teemIP maps and plans IPv4 and IPv6 space while connecting addresses to configuration items, devices, services, sites, organizations, DNS records, DHCP reservations and change requests. That relationship model turns IPAM into a broader operational inventory: an address can be understood in terms of the service and ownership behind it, not just its allocation state. Native DNS, DHCP, CMDB and NAT functions cover core address-management work, although the product does not attempt to reproduce every capability of an active DDI suite.

Founded in 2011 and headquartered in Meylan, France, teemIP supports on-premises deployment and sovereign cloud providers such as Outscale and OVHcloud. Hybrid deployment is therefore practical for organizations with data-location or sovereignty requirements. Its inventory repository and network mapping can help structure work related to NIS2 Article 21, but it is one operational component rather than a complete compliance program.

Key features

Address, DNS and DHCP management

Unified IPv4 and IPv6 administration, subnet details and hierarchical IP-tree navigation give growing address plans a clear structure. Integrated DNS, DHCP and NAT keep related records close to the address plan, which is useful for teams replacing spreadsheets or disconnected tools. Organizations requiring advanced active DNS/DHCP behavior, high availability or DNS security should confirm that teemIP meets those requirements before adoption.

Inventory, requests and change control

Links to CMDB objects, services, sites, organizations, reservations and requests provide service and dependency mapping, ownership tracking and a shared inventory context. Address requests become structured tickets with assignment, tracking and complete history. Role-based access control and logging add accountability, making the platform better suited to controlled operations than an unmanaged IP register.

Integrations and extensibility

A documented REST API and connectors for iTop, GLPI, Jira, Centreon, Zabbix, Nagios, Lansweeper, AD/LDAP, VMware, Proxmox, Grafana and Power BI support existing processes. teemIP SAS is also a Combodo OEM partner, with a team officially certified on iTop; that is particularly relevant to organizations already invested in iTop-based configuration management.

Pricing

Community

free, billed forever. Community includes 100% open-source code, free download and installation, GitHub and wiki access, a community forum and security-vulnerability handling. It is the logical choice for technically capable teams that can operate the platform without contractual support; it gives up the professional response, maintained updates and service commitments attached to paid subscriptions.

Standard

€500 a year, billed annually, with an annual commitment and a stated billing of €6,000 excl. VAT/year. It includes 10 annual support hours and business-hours coverage from 9am to 6pm on working days. This tier suits organizations that need a supported production deployment but can handle installation, integrations and training internally. The published pricing note also describes paid access from €500/mo (annual), so buyers should reconcile the commercial quote and billing basis before signing.

Premium

Custom pricing. Premium adds installation support, integration with existing tools and information systems, personalized training, dedicated support and SLA, priority maintenance and updates, plus advisory and strategic support. It is aimed at organizations where implementation assistance and response commitments matter more than minimizing subscription cost.

Platforms

teemIP is available as a web application with API access and supports Linux, Windows and self-hosted deployment. On-premises, sovereign-cloud and hybrid options give infrastructure teams control over where operational data runs.

Who it's for

Choose teemIP when network, infrastructure and service teams need one auditable view of address space, ownership, dependencies and requests, especially in regulated or sovereignty-conscious environments. It is less suitable when the primary requirement is a full active DDI platform with advanced DNS/DHCP automation, high availability or DNS security as central capabilities.

Pros and cons

Pros

• Connected IPAM and CMDB context: addresses can be related to devices, services, sites, owners and change requests.
• Auditable workflow: structured requests, history, RBAC and logging support accountability.
• Broad integration surface: REST API and connectors cover major ITSM, monitoring, directory, virtualization and analytics tools.
• Data-location control: self-hosting and sovereign-cloud deployment suit organizations with residency requirements.
• Usable free edition: the Community plan provides the complete open-source code without an expiry date.

Cons

• Active DDI scope is limited by design: advanced DNS/DHCP, high availability and DNS-security needs require validation.
• Supported operation costs more: Standard carries an annual commitment and paid support model.
• Premium pricing is custom: organizations needing implementation, SLA and advisory services cannot budget from a published figure.

Alternatives

For a broader shortlist, see DHCP Management Software, CMDB Software and IP Address Management Software.

• Subnetly is a better fit for a lightweight freemium deployment: its free tier covers 256 IPAM addresses, 10 subnets, two DHCP pools and private and public DNS zones.
• ISC Stork suits teams wanting free, Linux-focused open-source monitoring and professional support as a separate option.
• FluxDHCP, SagaOS Kea Pilot, Danbyte and OpenIPAM are free self-hosted alternatives when a no-cost deployment is the priority.
• DacatDHCP is appropriate for a permanently free Windows, IPv4-only local DHCP service.
• Jen Kea DHCP Management Console fits Linux or Docker environments already running ISC Kea with MySQL or MariaDB.

Verdict

teemIP is a strong choice for organizations that want open-source IPAM joined to inventory, ownership and change governance, with deployment control and a substantial integration catalog. Choose Community for self-managed operations, Standard for business-hours support, or Premium when implementation and SLA services are essential. Look elsewhere if advanced active DDI behavior is the primary requirement or if a narrowly focused free DHCP tool is all you need.
