Visual Trace Route

Visual Trace Route is a super simple tool that's here to replace the regular Windows trace route feature. It gives you extra info through a clean and easy-to-use interface.

Easy to Use Interface

You won’t find anything too tricky with Visual Trace Route. It takes just a few seconds to get the hang of it since there’s no complicated configuration screen or menus. You’ll be up and running in no time!

One-Window Wonder

This app keeps it simple with just one window. All you have to do is type in the host or IP address, choose how many hops you want to check, set the timeout, and that’s pretty much it! Hit the “Start” button and watch as Visual Trace Route shows you the path from your computer to the site you picked.

What Does It Show?

The app traces the route and displays the IP address along with the hostname, completion time for requests, TTL (Time To Live), and a time chart. Pretty handy stuff!

Help for Beginners

Now, while this program is straightforward, they did include a help manual for those who might need a little extra guidance. That’s great for beginners!

Compatibility Issues

On the downside, there are some compatibility problems with Windows 7. Even when you start it as an admin, sometimes it can be unresponsive or take its sweet time getting back on track if things go awry.

A Handy Tool with Room for Improvement

All in all, Visual Trace Route is a handy utility that has what it takes to step in for the standard trace route tool everyone uses these days. However, it could really use some updates in key areas to become a top player in this software space.
