Pros
"We can manage the entire system across the network and troubleshoot the pain points."

More Juniper Mist Premium Analytics Pros →

"The stability of this product is ok.""The solution transforms packet wire data into real-time data that is actionable. It helps us with faster detection of issues and allows us to create alerts.""The ability of the dashboards is useful for discover, mapping and understanding of application behaviour.""The visual and graphical interfaces in the display that it provides for us to show our senior leadership. We can show them what is actually happening, instead of a spreadsheet.""When we have any type of outage, and we dig into it, we are able to tell what the root cause is instead of having to go through Wireshark, etc.""The most valuable features are visibility, real-time, on-demand.""It is the ability to collect data and analyze it, especially key performance indicators. This is before a customer would call to the service center to complain that they have had bad coverage or a dropped call.""If one of our network pipes is getting plugged up by somebody using too much bandwidth, we can use the NETSCOUT tool to examine and find out what is going on."

More NETSCOUT nGeniusONE Pros →

"It has been very helpful to get notifications about various issues with my servers and network to help me take action to resolve problems before they become major issues.""It gives you remote control and has a mobile app.""The solution has great workflow and server modules.""The setup is simple.""We like the patching of the window updates in the client's systems. You can automatically do updates with a single click."

More Pulseway Pros →

Cons
"The Wi-Fi side needs improvement."

More Juniper Mist Premium Analytics Cons →

"The feature I am looking for is the Arbor technology, especially to run in parallel with our firewall... It's getting there.""The dependency mapping is good, but I am hopeful that they will build some type of partnership and relationship with ServiceNow. I want to see NETSCOUT partner with ServiceNow so they can leverage Service Now Discovery and Service Mapping to automate the build of the service dependency mappings inside of nGeniusONE.""NETSCOUT nGeniusONE's pricing is higher compared to the competitors. It is more than 15-18 percent of competitor costs. It also needs to add AI features.""The GUI has gotten better over time but there could be some improvement in how the GUI is built.""The product was lacking for awhile when they did the Arbor acquisition. I was waiting to see more security stuff, which they did eventually add, and is now impressive.""While it is good, the single pane of glass view is too high level. It is better for management or someone doing sanity checks. A lot of times, I need to go deeper into the additional screens to get what I want out of it.""I would like more in-depth convergence between all the applications, especially when I look for information through a data mine.""On a network the size of ours, the loading times seem a little extensive, 20 or 30 seconds to load up some graphs."

More NETSCOUT nGeniusONE Cons →

"The solution does not allow you to make a script for just one customer.""They have good technical support but it's not excellent.""There are some bugs or glitches.""It would be nice if it also had a desktop application, similar to the phone app, which would allow me to monitor and control computers from my desktop.""GUI needs to be improved and the solution lacks a process for monitoring VOIP calls."

Pricing and Cost Advice
Information Not Available
  • "If you are able and you are willing to use everything that Netscout provides to you, it's probably a relatively fair price. The problem is that it's such a large and such a complex tool that I'm not sure that many companies would be able to use it entirely, the way it's expected to be used."
  • "Like any company, we always want better pricing. The pricing is okay, but it's not a cheap solution. When you want to deploy it across an enterprise as large as ours, you go into seven figures. It's not a cheap solution to get out there."
  • "Their pricing is very competitive with other solutions... But what I like about NETSCOUT's licensing is that it's shared across all their platforms. They don't create a new licensing scheme for every one of their products. So for nGeniusONE, you buy a certain license level, and it works on all of their products."
  • "Cost is probably the biggest drawback. Compared to some of the newer vendors that have popped up in the space, it's definitely more on the expensive side... [But] it's been able to keep its value, even in the face of the cheaper competition."
  • "The biggest problem we have with this product is the expense."
  • "It can be expensive, but if you have a good configuration, based on what you are looking for, it's okay, it's manageable."
  • "It is very expensive, but it's well worth the money."
  • "It is a little overall pricey and expensive, but you get what you pay for."
