Overall Satisfaction with SolarWinds NetFlow Traffic Analyzer (NTA)

The core use of NetFlow Traffic Analyzer is to determine how our company's bandwidth is being used and by whom. It provides a real time visual that collects, analyzes and reports the bandwidth usages.

Pros

  • collection of traffic data
  • the analyzes
  • reporting

Cons

  • graphs and charts need work on navigation
  • port monitoring design
  • needs more troubleshooting methods embedded
  • bandwidth bottlenecks
  • removal of unnecessary personnel
SolarWinds NetFlow Traffic Analyzer compared to Wireshark and PRTG Network Monitor beats it by just the simple interface. Though all are manual setup, NTA takes it a step further with graphs and reports that analyze the data for you. In comparing to Extrahop from a bandwidth comparison, Extrahop wins but Extrahop is a lot more than just a bandwidth monitoring and cost.
I can't really answer this question since I've never needed to call support. NTA is simple to setup and use as long as you have a good understanding of netflow and how to setup connections on multi platforms.
