Statseeker Primary Use Case

JH
Network Engineer at West Virginia Department of Education

We have about 800 schools and we use Statseeker to monitor the WAN router at each site. Up/down (uptime and downtime) is our biggest thing. After that, we use it for monitoring bandwidth, interface utilization and different things like that. We use it for all the statistics it can provide in real-time and for historical usage. We use those statistics to plan if there is a need for upgrades — things like that.

Statseeker provides the basic monitoring status of our network elements, including latency, ping delays, and ping drops. Its strengths lie in a couple of areas. Firstly, it is not an expensive tool. Secondly, it can retain data for up to around two years.

JB
Senior Network Engineer at Unum Group

Our primary use of Statseeker is for our interface. In our data center, we are typically a Cisco shop. We can now look thirty days into the future based on past stats of trends or fashion. 

If we have 10 servers in the field office, we can jump up to twenty based on utilization. We have the evidence. It is a lot of manual work to create those reports, but a bit easier now.
