Description
The best WiFi analyzer, manager, scanner, heatmapper, and planner!
NetSpot is best known for its versatile toolset in real-time analysis of WiFi networks. Its tools include the Wi-Fi Inspector, great wireless visualizations within WiFi Site Surveys of existing networks, and the updated Wi-Fi Planning Mode that lets you simulate your future WiFi coverage with its powerful predictive surveys. NetSpot is your main go-to answer to the never ending question of how to boost wifi signal.
Collect and analyze data on surrounding wireless networks, see the real WiFi coverage, conduct wireless site surveys, test WiFi, visualize data with WiFi heat maps, plan Wifi, fix existing and prevent various future WiFi issues.
Setting up a reliable WiFi network is a must, but not always easy. Possible obstructions in the way of getting a steady signal can include interference from already existing networks in the area, noise from electronic devices, structural materials resistance, user density, etc. While you can experiment until you find the optimal positioning for your access points, NetSpot Wi-Fi Planner is a faster and more effective solution!
NetSpot Wi-Fi Analyzer efficiently detects and visualizes all WiFi networks around you, determines wireless signal strength and their other parameters, identifies possible Wi-Fi interference.
NetSpot generates more than 20 different WiFi heatmap visualizations:
* Signal-to-noise ratio
* Signal level
* Signal-to-interference ratio
* Internet speed check and WiFi speed test
* Wi-Fi troubleshooting and more

Ratings and Reviews
good wifi analyzer and singal strength mapper
This is not just an efficient Wi-Fi analyzer; it also enables users to site survey buildings and receive reports detailing areas of weak and strong Wi-Fi signal strength. One aspect I personally find lacking is the ability to quickly create floor plans using AI and a smartphone, with just a couple of clicks. I find the built-in floor plan builder somewhat tricky to use
Efficient Wi-Fi mapping
I was able to create an impressive Wi-Fi heatmap for my office, which helped identify areas with weak Wi-Fi coverage. However, it came at a significant cost, as the free version only functions as a Wi-Fi analyzer, displaying details about surrounding Wi-Fi networks. Overall, this app is effective but can be expensive for the pro version.
WiFi Planning!
Was really looking forward to this feature. Still figuring things out, but looks impressive. The support people are really nice and responsive, which always adds to the value imo.
