Overview

GestióIP is web-based software for managing IPv4 and IPv6 address space, with network discovery and tools for keeping address records connected to DNS and DHCP data. It suits network teams that want self-hosted IPAM or a pre-installed cloud instance. The free core covers substantial planning and data-management work; device configuration management and API access are commercial additions.

Key features

GestióIP discovers networks from Layer III routing tables and finds hosts through ping, DNS, SNMP and DHCP lease processing. That gives administrators several ways to populate and refresh an address inventory. DNS updates use TSIG or GSS-TSIG with Microsoft DNS, BIND and other DNS products, while lease synchronization supports ISC DHCPD, ISC KEA, Microsoft DHCP server and generic lease files. These integrations make the software useful where address management needs to reflect existing DNS and DHCP operations, though the setup still depends on the team’s network environment.

For everyday checks and subnet work, the software includes one-click ping and DNS A/PTR checks, free-range display, subnet split and join operations, a subnet calculator and a hierarchical IPv6 addressing-plan builder. Excel import, CSV export and BIND or tinydns forward and reverse zone-file generation help move data into and out of IPAM workflows. The mix makes the free core more than a directory of addresses, particularly for teams planning IPv6 alongside IPv4.

The commercial API provides CRUD operations and can find or reserve the first free network or IP address, making it the relevant upgrade for teams automating address workflows. The optional Configuration Management Module backs up and restores device configurations, runs commands across multiple devices, keeps configuration history, and supports diffs and searches. It extends the product into device operations, but its annual licenses are capped by device count.

The interface runs in a browser without extra client software. Teams can install packages from SourceForge or deploy with Docker Compose using the project’s GitHub instructions. GestióIP Cloud provides a pre-installed SaaS instance intended to be ready in one day. Cloud access is VPN-secured, each instance uses a dedicated virtual server, database backups are automatic, and customers can select a DigitalOcean data-center region. Commercial support offers email or telephone assistance with guaranteed response times; cloud subscriptions include email support.

Pricing

GestióIP IPAM is free and is the standard free-software package under GPLv3. It is the practical starting point for teams that can manage their own deployment and need IPAM, discovery, DNS and DHCP data handling, and subnet-planning tools. The API and Configuration Management Module are commercial features rather than part of that free package.

The Configuration Management Module is licensed for one year, with pricing tied to device capacity:

Plan	Price	Device limit
Configuration Management Module	400.00 USD per year	Up to 50 devices
Configuration Management Module	700.00 USD per year	Up to 100 devices
Configuration Management Module	1500.00 USD per year	Up to 500 devices
Configuration Management Module	2800.00 USD per year	Up to 1000 devices
Configuration Management Module	5000.00 USD per year	Up to 2500 devices

Choose a tier based on the number of devices whose configurations need managing; the lower tiers impose tighter capacity limits. Cloud subscriptions and commercial API pricing are custom pricing. A free trial is available.

Platforms

GestióIP supports API, Linux, self-hosted, web and Windows environments. Its deployment model is hybrid: teams can run it on premises or choose the cloud instance. The browser interface avoids installing a separate client, while the available installation packages and Docker Compose deployment suit organizations that want control over hosting.

Who it's for

GestióIP is a good fit for network administrators who need a structured IPv4 and IPv6 inventory tied to discovery, DNS and DHCP workflows, especially when self-hosting and open-source licensing matter. The Cloud option suits teams that want a pre-installed instance without operating the software themselves. Organizations seeking configuration backups, multi-device commands and change comparisons should budget for the paid module; those needing only basic IPAM can start with the free core.

Pros and cons

Pros: The GPLv3 core combines discovery, address tracking, IPv6 planning, DNS updates and DHCP lease synchronization without a software license charge.
Pros: Browser access, Excel import, CSV export and DNS zone-file generation support practical administration and data exchange.
Pros: Self-hosted deployment and a secured, backed-up cloud option give teams a choice of operating model.
Cons: API access is commercial, so teams that need programmatic address operations must account for an additional cost.
Cons: Configuration management is a separate annual license with device caps, so larger estates require higher-priced tiers.
Cons: Self-hosting puts deployment and operation in the customer’s hands; the cloud route is the alternative for teams that prefer a pre-installed service.

Alternatives

For a different IPAM option, compare IP Address Management Software; teams evaluating broader documentation workflows can also browse Network Documentation Software.

Scanopy is worth considering when its self-hosted Community Edition’s one-network, one-user limits suit a smaller deployment, or when its paid Starter plan better fits the budget. LOGINventory is an alternative for teams whose inventory needs fit its Forever-Free cap of 20 devices. Obelinf offers a Personal plan capped at one user, one organization, one site, four racks and 30 devices, making those limits central to the choice.

Open Network Diagram is a free, self-hosted Docker option under GNU GPL v3. Nautobot offers a free, self-managed Community edition intended for exploration, initial workflows and limited production deployments. Danbyte is a free, self-hosted open-source option with all features included and no seat license or license expiry.

Hudu is a paid alternative with a monthly plan and no user minimums. ITFlow is a free, self-hosted open-source option, with hosting and sponsor support offered as paid services.

Verdict

Choose GestióIP if your team needs capable IPv4 and IPv6 address management linked to discovery, DNS and DHCP, and wants a free GPLv3 core it can self-host. Its main advantage is the breadth of network-management work covered before a paid upgrade is needed. Look elsewhere if you require a commercial API or configuration management without device-capped annual licensing, or if your team does not want to run an on-premise installation and does not want the cloud option.
