Your network, and every password to it. One app.
NettForge sees your towers, sectors, OLTs and client gear, knows what's down and why, and logs your techs in with the right login. It all sits inside a zero-knowledge vault your whole team can share safely.
Built for the way ISPs and MSPs actually work
Client Wall
Every client's folders have their own encryption key. A tech on one client can't open another, even if a server were breached.
Leaver Lockdown
When a tech leaves, NettForge changes the real passwords on your MikroTiks and SSH gear, not just in the vault, and gives you a report.
Keychain Login
Save the logins your gear uses. NettForge tries them in order over SSH, WinBox or the web, then remembers which one worked.
SLA reports
Uptime is recorded per client automatically. Send a monthly report, proof of the service you deliver.
Your network cockpit, inside the vault
Polaris Starter is free for everyone. Polaris Pro comes with every team plan and turns NettForge into the tool your techs open first in the morning.
Network pulse FREE
Your devices with a live up or down dot, re-checked every few minutes. Quick monitor for the gear you care about.
Root cause PRO
When a tower goes down, Polaris shows the one device that broke and holds back the alarms for everything behind it.
Discovery PRO
Scan a range and add what answers, named and grouped, instead of typing in every sector by hand.
Toolbox, 22 tools
Is it up? (type the address any way you like), traceroute, a path test that shows real packet loss, port finder, speed test against the client's plan, MikroTik config backup with what changed, dish and fibre link health, DNS, certificate, MTU, Wake on LAN and more, from the Windows app, saved to the client's history.
Scheduled monitors PRO
Checks that keep running on a schedule and build the uptime history your SLA reports use.
Quick Connect and Auto-Type PRO
Press Ctrl+Alt+W, type a device name, and you are in over WinBox or SSH. Ctrl+Alt+A types a login into any app.
Tests that watch for you
Ping or check anything for 15 minutes, 2 hours or a week, with a countdown. If it drops you get a Windows notification, a sound and a flashing taskbar button, then a report.
Tunnels, several at once BETA
Open each client's WireGuard inside NettForge, even when two clients use the same address range. Nothing is added to Windows and there is no admin prompt. Windows VPN, OpenVPN and FortiClient work too.
Terminals
SSH, telnet and serial console in tabs, with logins from your vault, straight through a client's tunnel.
Is it them or us?
DStv, Netflix, banks and 40 more services are checked every 5 minutes. Polaris also tests from your client's own network and tells you if the service is down or the line is, and notifies you when something big goes down.
Reminders and sticky notes
"Call Ana back in 15 minutes", a weekly check, an alarm that keeps reminding you. A floating bubble and sticky notes on your desktop. All encrypted like your passwords.
Reports and history
Every test result can be saved to the client's history and printed as a clean report to hand over.
