Find out what your peers are saying about Zabbix, Datadog, Auvik and others in Network Monitoring Software."We can manage the entire system across the network and troubleshoot the pain points."
"The solution allowed us to not only get gain insight but also start collaborating with other tools."
"It works efficiently for encrypted traffic analysis."
"Cisco Stealthwatch provides the solutions analytics and threat detection capabilities that I am looking for. It has also improved the network visibility of our organization."
"The most valuable feature is NetFlow. The beginning of any security investigation starts with NetFlow data."
"Ease of deployment, once you get your ducks in a row."
"The most valuable feature we got out of Stealthwatch is to be able to, while troubleshooting, go deep into one of our interfaces and verify what the bandwidth is and if there's any activity there that's causing problems."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is the way the net flow is being merged together in a single pane. That's been extremely useful for us, because can see what's going on with traffic in one single place."
"The artifacts available in the tool provide better information for analyzing network traffic. It enables a holistic view of network traffic and general packet analysis. It's easy to identify anomalies without the use of signatures. The way in which we implemented Stealthwatch Cloud has enabled my team to analyze traffic behind proxies."
"We have visibility on all our network devices, through this tool, which gives me immediate alerts or notifications when some devices fail."
"The Wi-Fi side needs improvement."
"One update I would like to see is an agent-based client. Currently StealthWatch is network based."
"The initial setup was complex."
"The reporting of day-to-day metrics still has room for improvement."
"Stealthwatch needs improvement when it comes to speed."
"If there was one improvement I’d suggest it would be that it detect traffic through an intranet. The product requires that traffic flow through a managed network device. The product is designed mostly for enterprise environments and not smaller environments or businesses."
"We haven't seen ROI."
"We would like the solution to make more advances in the way that Extreme Networks has been doing."
"Complexity on integration is not so straightforward and you really need an expert to help build it out."
"The only thing I can say needs improvement is in how they present the data to the end users. End users are looking for a dashboard with an attractive view. The current dashboards we have are sufficient for our needs, but not attractive for the business users at the upper management levels."
