Why MSPs evaluate Pipsqueak as a Network Detective alternative

Pipsqueak is built around the MSP client lifecycle. Start a conversation with a public-facing scan, move into authorized discovery, create a report the business owner understands, and revisit priorities through dedicated QBR workflows. One Pro subscription connects those stages.

Try the workflow before choosing your subscription

New accounts start with a 15-day Pro trial. Test an external lead magnet, collect Snapshot evidence, create a branded report, and prepare a client review. After the trial, Community remains free with Snapshot, Active Directory scans, /24 network scans, and watermarked reports.
