Overview

Domotz combines device inventory and topology mapping with health monitoring, remote controls, and network diagnostics. That scope can let a team move from noticing an issue to investigating or responding to it in the same platform. Unlimited free device discovery makes it useful for initial network visibility, but ongoing monitoring and management require a paid option.

Founded in 2015 and headquartered in Draper, Utah, Domotz serves organizations managing one network or multiple sites. Collector plans are organized around a site or network, while the device option is billed in blocks of 10 managed devices; integrators can also choose per-home pricing.

Key features

Discovery and mapping: Automatic discovery builds an inventory and topology map. The free discovery tier supports evaluation with real network data, a meaningful advantage for teams that first need to understand what is connected.
Monitoring: Domotz tracks device health, performance, and uptime, including SNMP values and TCP services, with alert thresholds. Synthetic checks and traffic monitoring are also included among its capabilities. This makes the platform relevant to ongoing operations, not just one-time inventory.
Remote management and diagnostics: Remote access, power control, configuration backup and restore, and scripts give teams ways to act on devices at a distance. Speed tests, traceroutes, and on-demand VPN access add diagnostic options when a connection needs investigation.
Integrations and deployment: Domotz supports more than 100 vendor integrations and thousands of device models. Its collector has 16 deployment options, including a Domotz Box, virtual machines, Windows, Linux, NAS, Docker, and Raspberry Pi, which gives teams several ways to fit collection into their environments.
Security and support: Domotz says it is audited to SOC 2 Type II and certified under ISO/IEC 27001:2022, with encryption for data in transit and at rest. SSO/SAML, two-factor authentication, role-based team management, secure network sharing, and audit logging address access control. Customers can schedule time with network experts for setup or troubleshooting.

Pricing

Domotz is freemium, with a free plan and a 14-day trial. The free tier provides unlimited device discovery for evaluation, but it is not a substitute for paid ongoing monitoring and management.

Per-device option: 1.50 USD per month, billed per managed device per month in bundles of 10. This suits customers who want device-based billing, though the 10-device increments mean the bill is not tailored to an arbitrary device count.
Collector Plan: 35.00 USD per month per collector, covering one site or network per collector, unlimited devices, and every feature. It can suit larger or denser networks where an unlimited-device allowance matters; each additional site or network requires its own collector.
Residential integrator pricing: Custom pricing, billed per home per month. Volume and annual commitments can lower the rate to €8. This is aimed at integrators managing homes rather than counting devices individually.
MSP and commercial integrator pricing: Custom pricing, billed per collector per month, with one site or network and unlimited devices per collector. Volume and annual commitments can lower the rate to €17.50, making it an option for qualifying integrators willing to commit to volume or an annual term.

Platforms

Domotz supports Android, iOS, Linux, macOS, Windows, web, and API access. Its collector deployment options also include NAS, Docker, Raspberry Pi, virtual machines, and a dedicated Domotz Box.

Who it's for

Domotz is a strong fit for MSPs, IT departments, system integrators, and security professionals who need visibility across network devices and remote tools for monitoring, diagnosis, and management. Teams focused only on free discovery can start without paying, while those needing unlimited managed devices at a site can consider a collector plan. Buyers who need pricing that maps neatly to a specific device count should account for the 10-device billing bundles.

Pros and cons

Pro: Unlimited free discovery provides a way to map real network devices before committing to paid service.
Pro: Monitoring, remote control, configuration backup, and diagnostics combine visibility with practical response tools.
Pro: Multiple collector deployment options and broad vendor integration support can accommodate varied network environments.
Con: Device-based billing is sold in bundles of 10, which may not align with a customer's exact managed-device count.
Con: Collector pricing is per site or network, so organizations with multiple locations need to account for multiple collectors.
Con: Integrator pricing depends on volume or annual commitments for its lower rates, so those prices may not suit smaller or less predictable deployments.

Alternatives

Network Discovery Software, Network Management Software, and Network Monitoring offer broader category options for comparing tools.

Fing Security is worth considering for users who prioritize network and ISP reporting, troubleshooting tools, and internet speed tests; its free plan is limited to up to 3 scans per day, with Premium at 7.
LOGINventory may suit buyers focused on inventory, with a free plan capped at 20 devices and an Inventory360 plan at 6.50 EUR per year.
OCS Inventory is an alternative for those seeking an open-source community project for inventory.
runZero is a possible fit for teams whose needs fit its Community Edition limits of 100 assets, one organization, 10 recurring tasks, and 30 days of data retention.
LanTopoLog is another option for buyers comparing network mapping tools.
LANState is another option for buyers comparing network management tools.
WhatInStartup is an option for managing Windows startup programs.
AutoScan-Network is a free alternative for Linux, macOS, and Windows.

Verdict

Choose Domotz if your team needs network discovery plus continuing monitoring, remote management, and diagnostics across one or more sites. The free discovery tier lowers the barrier to evaluating its visibility, and paid collector pricing includes unlimited devices and every feature. Look elsewhere if you need a simple, precisely per-device bill without bundle increments, or if your work calls only for a narrower inventory or troubleshooting tool.
