“IT-Forensic - You need a superb IP locator!”

Lisen J.
11/5/16

If you need to get some information on where the person is located you need to get the IP adress. When you have it you just enter it and IP2Location will in a few seconds provide you with data! If the person is on a mobile phone, its quite obvious that it will no detailed information as it will show the provider. There is many ways to get hold of an IP. You can get the person to send you an email, and view the code behind the head. This can also sometimes be hidden or if its in a VPN, you will getting a different country! BUT, this tool has a large DB and I cant wait to be able to explore everything! :)

“Never ever again”

More than 80% of the Locations on this Database are Miss-Leading or just wrong located automatically. I don't really know how they have got customers like EUROPOL, they're just a piece of nothing. I hope this company does learn from their mistakes. I would never use it and I'm just trying to contact the service to un-subscribe IP2Locations.

Love the amount of information you can get
I'm $#*!en tired of internet scammers and what they are about. They almost seem untouchable with the latest technology. I've been victimized and identity stolen as well. Not to mention not making a done yet and going on 4 years+.

Best tool to search by country, in a list of 2.000 ip addresses, it will tell you wich one belongs to your country or it is from foreign country. Great allied to search for rogue access from outside your country. Subscribed to free, but will upgrade for sure!

This tools is quite easy to use and put in production. It changed my life. Now I can focus on my real job and automatize the cleanup of my subscriptions. I would not be able to work without Ip2location anymore.

Does this product solve problems? They may have an alright database BUT they sell fake databases overall. Normal websites allow to change IP locations easy but ONLY IP2Location does not allow it. And the support is the worst part of all. There's ONLY 1 person at the support, none else. And even this single guy CAN'T MOVE HIS FINGERS to text me back.

Useless, poor and salty.

IP2Location helps you quickly find your IP address. It also has a tool to find the location of an IP address which then provides more information about that IP address such as ISP, Whois information and other relevant information. This website is particularly useful for website owners and community moderators dealing with spam and abuse.

I'm using the free Firewall Filter IP address list. It works so well in my Apache web server.

All system administrators should know this free service.

When i reviewed the country IP prevention list, i got script with allow instead of deny in the code, and every ip address known to man. If i'd loaded this, my site would have been overrun. Crazy.

Hi Ias,

Thank you for your feedback. We take the data accuracy seriously. Can you please email us the steps to reproduce the error? We believe you were using the free firewall export feature. The issue should not be related to the data accuracy. We need your confirmation on this matter. Thank you.

I paid $195 for their database, and then found that it had lots of incorrect information. For example, the following two IP addresses show up ad being in Newark New Jersey, when the actual location is thousands of miles away. I looked up the same IP addresses on geobytes.com and got the correct information. The two IP addresses were 75.255.175.191 and 97.204.186.147.
