Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?

Custom dashboards and reports make a single pane of glass type view for troubleshooting network congestion using netflow. The ability to click on most anything to drill down into details and add filters makes this product a joy to work with.

What do you dislike about the product?

There is a bit of a learning curve. It isn't straight forward out of the box and the linux platform does take some cli know how to manage the system.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

Determining the cause of network congestion -- after receiving alerts for high interface utilization, one click to scrutinizer is all we need to find the culprit.

It's useful for tracking protocol usage and traffic volumes.
