# Finder (classic)

{% hint style="info" %}
Nexthink Finder is a Windows-only desktop application whose functionality is now available within the Nexthink web interface. Nexthink can now be used directly from a browser and most functions no longer require an additional desktop application.
{% endhint %}

Nexthink Finder is the search and user interface to render visibility into your IT infrastructure. Analyze IT services and query what you need within seconds. Expand or drill down the results in a few clicks to reveal swiftly, across the entire network, how many versions of a particular application are in use and on which workstations, the bandwidth consumed by the application, the servers and domains that the application accesses, the network response times, which users experienced issues, and much more.
