This product has good network monitoring and troubleshooting capabilities.

The original case was mapping and the solution enabled us to draw out our maps instead of hand draw the maps with the links and everything else. It's okay on the value, a bit expensive for just maps, but makes it a lot easier to see things visually and take it from there.

• On-Demand
• Full-map
• L2 troubleshooting

They will show more errors than you think! Fix them as you find them and the network gremlins just go away.

On-Demand Mapping of what’s actually configured vs. what the network architect intended at build is incredibly valuable. Things change over time. Subtle changes can be significant.

Crowd-sourced network documentation is a huge time-saver. It’s incredibly simple and level-sets your documentation.

NetBrain is a very simple tool.

It is very good when it comes to network mapping, as it looks for different assets within the network available, so router, firewall, applications, et cetera, and it gives you the full mapping, asset mapping along with the full range including the firmware software update and all those things. 

NetBrain is not an NDR solution. It's very strong doing at layer seven. NDR, looks at seven layers, including application level. NetBrain is stronger at layers three and four and that's it. NetBrain can be very useful if there is any misconfiguration on the firewall or unused policies on the firewall, which could be a triggering point to open back doors for an attacker to come from the internet to exploit vulnerabilities. 

The solution is stable.

It can scale well.

We had no problem setting it up. 

The solution is pretty economical. 

The mapping is the most valuable feature for my usage. It saves me time because I don't have to walk the network by hand and figure out the relationship between switches and routers on the network. It automatically creates a map for me. The time savings lets me put my energies toward creating the solution rather than doing the footwork.

The most valuable feature of the solution is that you can click once and have a link test. I can see my network. It gives me an overall view of my network and the state of how it is. 

Chain management is a good feature. I don't get it on other solutions.

The interface is very user-friendly.
