What is desktest.net?
A free collection of diagnostic pages built for the software stack that powers a front desk: property management, self-storage, dental, medical, legal, hospitality. Every tool here is the single thing an IT person sends a user to when something isn't working.
Each page is built around three rules:
- One page, one question. A test should give a clear pass/fail in under a minute. No menus, no settings, no decisions to make.
- Nothing leaves your computer. All checks happen locally in the browser against your installed drivers. View source proves it.
- No accounts, no tracking, no monetization. The trust posture is the moat. If you ever see a "sign up" button on this site, something has gone wrong.
