From other systems just check if the IP and port are reachable using the telnet IP port command. if the IP is reachable then most likely it would be the port, you need to add a proper inbound/outbound rule(for ThingWorx port) in the firewall to allow access to that port. No additional software is required on the client machines.

    Go to firewall settings in the machine where the ThingWorx server is installed. Create a new inbound rule for the port on which the server is running. You can find more detailed steps on the web (how to create an inbound/outbound rule) . Once you create that rule, please check to do "telnet ip port" from the client machine to check if the port is allowed or not.
