LANState is a visual network manager that allows you to create an interactive map of your network and monitor the status of all connected devices in real-time. LANState monitors shared resources, traffic, and notifies you on miscellaneous events. In addition, you can send messages, shut down remote computers, review system information, and run network tools including ping and traceroute. Other features include a network traffic monitor, and export to BMP or XML scheme.

LANState contains the following modules:
* Network diagram builder: Create network diagram automatically and export it to Visio
* Network monitor: Monitor hosts, servers, and services
* Alerter: Be notified on network or service failures
* Share connection monitor: Audit connections to your shared resources
* LANState Pro: Access actual network diagram in real-time using web technology
The software also includes a number of useful features for obtaining information on remote computers.
LANState has a rich host monitoring functionality with multiple types of host checks, which allows you to see the state of your network at any time. The software displays a network map, monitoring device's state (active/inactive) in real-time. You just click a tray icon at any time, and see which servers and computers are switched on, and which do not respond. Web access is also supported (LANState Pro).
Employing LANState makes it essentially easier to administer and monitor processes in networks of any ranges or sizes.

Why LANState? Program's Benefits:
* LANState builds a network map automatically by scanning Windows network neighborhood or IP address range.
* Save your network map for future use, print it, export it to a bitmap file.
* Be notified by background device monitoring via a screen message, sound, or Email when your servers go down or start working.
* You do not have to pay for quantity of controlled devices. I.e., if you monitor 10 or 500 devices, the price will be the same.
* You do not have to pay additional money for technical support.
* And the most important. The package does not require installing any components on remote servers and workstations.
* Link external applications like file managers or remote administration program to the software and run them in a couple of clicks with needed parameters.
* Import custom backgrounds for more evident network map's look.
* Access and manage remote devices in a couple of clicks, using LANState's visual network map. You are able to shut down, restart, and turn on servers and workstations, access remote services and resources, view remote event logs, access remote registry, list processes, devices, NT services, and so on.
* Export network diagram to Microsoft Visio (LANState Pro).
* Send messages to domain users with help of integrated advanced messenger.
* Monitor connections to your shared resources and be notified when someone connects to your shared resources (logging, sound/screen notifications, and "black list" are supported).
