NetVizura NetFlow Analyzer vs Pandora FMS

Likelihood to Recommend

The capacity planning was a big help in our company as we grew the number of connected locations. Grow or die is pretty much the business model of today but that growth is only as good as the network it travels on. Being able to recommend appropriate network requirements is a big deal in our line of business.

Return on Investment

As I mentioned in a previous statement, the capacity planning was the big thing. In our line of business, speed is everything. Customers hate to be slowed down so having the appropriate network connections is a must.
Anomaly Detection with the threshold based alerting has made our network team more proactive in stopping things before they can really affect the company.
Productivity with the use of monitoring conversations and amount of used bandwidth has helped weed out the works versus the campers.

It is a tool with an appropriate cost that allows to have results in a very limited time.
Having a health dashboard and alerts of important business in the company is an important differential with any other monitoring solution on the market.
Monitoring can be adjusted to the business, considering service SLAs and adjusting the platform according to the needs of each department of the company.
