Extrahop has proven to be an essential tool for the network operation team, providing valuable insights into the performance and stability of critical business services. Users from various business groups, including Business, Dev, DevOps, and SecOps, rely on Extrahop as an objective 'source of truth'. This software is extensively utilized to monitor the internal network across multiple corporate locations and analyze traffic to identify any anomalies. By analyzing SQL queries and their performance on the network, Extrahop helps in resolving program and programming issues. Additionally, it plays a crucial role in reporting on IT utilization, diagnosing issues with applications and services, and capacity planning for apps and services. Unlike other similar tools that require agents, Extrahop stands out as an agentless solution that provides a wealth of information regarding network traffic. It is widely used by the networking team for diagnosing and troubleshooting issues effectively. Moreover, the technology department greatly benefits from Extrahop's ability to monitor the organization's network, allowing for detailed analysis of payload and packet loss.

Valuable Health Monitoring Capabilities: Reviewers have found Extrahop's health monitoring capabilities to be highly valuable, with multiple users mentioning this as a positive aspect. The ability to compare and analyze data collected from different hops in the network allows for easier identification of issues within the network.

Comprehensive Analysis with Intelligence Engine: Many reviewers have been impressed by Extrahop's intelligence engine, which enables deep-dive analysis from the network layer up to the application layer. This comprehensive analysis helps identify the root cause of problems, whether they are related to the network or the application. Several users appreciated how this feature saves time and avoids blame-shifting between teams.

Customizable Programming Functionalities: Users have praised Extrahop for its customizable programming functionalities that allow them to meet specific requirements and improve service operations. This versatility has been highlighted by multiple reviewers as a valuable aspect of the product.

Challenging User Interface: Some users have found the user interface of the product to be challenging to use and not intuitive. They feel that improvements could be made in terms of making it more user-friendly.

Lack of Integration with Other Network Analysis Tools: Several users have expressed a desire for better integration with other network analysis tools like Wireshark or TCPdump. They would like the ability to program specific criteria to trigger the probe to run these tools and save traces of problematic sessions.

Need for Improved Documentation: Some users have mentioned that the documentation provided with the product is not great and often requires them to seek assistance from tech support. Although they acknowledge that the tech support is outstanding, they suggest that better documentation could help reduce their reliance on support calls.

A new and very useful ability of ExtraHop [Performance Platform] is the single tool for cloud forensics. Cloud incidents can easily be determined with the ability to implement responses along with assessments to easy the burden of reports. In comparison to Netscout, ExtraHop's user interface is more fluent and easier to maneuver.

  • Extrahop has more 'canned' reports out of the box than Splunk and is arguably easier to use.
  • Extrahop is more app-centric and less network-centric than NetScout.
  • Extrahop provides better Application transaction monitoring and analysis than Solarwinds.

Actually Extrahop and Dynatrace they are quite similar, actually we have both of them being used in my business organization. I have found Extrahop had local technical support available in my city so made it a bit easy to communicate and seek for support if we met any problem in using the solution.

We use ExtraHop specifically to monitor network traffic. It does many other things very well also, but it is the best network traffic analysis tool that we currently have in house. The fact that it is agentless also makes it more reliable and not dependent on agents running on devices throughout our enterprise.
