Crosswork Cloud Network Insignts - Essentials Tier
4.5
Overview
Cisco Crosswork Network Insights is a hosted application that provides rich analysis, visualization, and alerting on actionable BGP network events. Cisco Crosswork Network Insights operates as a hosted service and helps you assess the routing health of your network. We provide you with information you need to determine the stability of your networks and potential risks to your IP routing assets.
Cisco Crosswork Network Insights aggregates global and local routing information and identifies the source of anomalies based on a consensus of the routing databases. This service is a successor of BGPMon.net for multi-vendor networks that use BGP routing protocols. The service provides a secure and low-risk method of collecting route information at a global scale. We can do all this while tracking hundreds of thousands of IP route update records and maintaining their event history.
This offer is only for the Crosswork Network Insights - Essentials tier. Crosswork Network Insights is also available in Advantage Tier and Premier Tier. If you would like a different subscription tier please search for 'Crosswork Network Insights'.
Prepaid for 1-100 Monitored Prefixes at a fixed contract rate, for more than 100 prefixes post paid quantities will all be billed at the lowest price band based on the average monthly configured prefix usage. If you use 1000 prefixes and prepay 100, you will be billed for the additional prefix usage at the 501 to 2000 rate per prefix, per month for all additional 900 prefixes.
If you require more than 10K prefixes please request a Private Offer.
Highlights
- Network and BGP analysis to maintain routing health by monitoring for route leaks and hijacks.
- Cisco Crosswork Network Insights is a revolutionary cloud-based platform for presenting real time network routing, event, and traffic information. It uses IETF standards based routing control protocols in combination with a cloud native architecture to capture the state of your networks BGP reachability.
- Cisco Crosswork Network Insights is designed to give your organization the tools to identify and understand routing events as they happen. This unique service will significantly reduce the time it takes to know what is happening to your network and IP address assets, a critical step in reducing the Mean Time to Resolution MTTR for BGP issues.

Automation has transformed endpoint deployment and streamlines multi-vendor network operations
Reviewed on Mar 25, 2026
Review from a verified AWS customer
What is our primary use case?
My main use case for Cisco Crosswork Network Insights is that we deployed it to automate the workloads for our service provider environment, and we are going to eventually manage 700 plus endpoints at the end of the project.
A specific example of how I use Cisco Crosswork Network Insights with those workloads is that it has been great at reducing the workload our engineers face on the day-to-day aspects of their jobs, and it has also been able to reduce the time it takes to provision a device while using NSO and has provided valuable data to assist in troubleshooting network-wide issues. Cisco Crosswork Network Insights has been a pivotal aspect to our multi-million dollar network refresh.
What is most valuable?
The best features that Cisco Crosswork Network Insights offers include a single pane of glass, multi-vendor comparison, and the ability to reduce engineer workload.
The single pane of glass and multi-vendor comparison features help my team day-to-day because with the single pane of glass, we are able to manage everything at a single place, hence saving a lot of time, and the administration becomes very easy. Additionally, there is real-time network monitoring and analytics, multi-vendor and multi-domain support, scalable AI-driven insights to make data-driven decisions easy, and a modular application ecosystem with open APIs.
Cisco Crosswork Network Insights has empowered our team to deploy network devices at customer locations more efficiently than ever before, and it also delivers critical network telemetry, streamlining troubleshooting and reducing reliance on manual processes.

We decided to switch from Juniper and SolarWinds Engineer's Toolset to Cisco Crosswork Network Insights because they were a bit more expensive, they were not providing what we needed, especially to automate the workloads of our services, and the customer support from their side was not as quick to respond and was less powerful.
What was our ROI?
I have seen a return on investment because Cisco Crosswork Network Insights has enhanced automation for endpoint deployment, hence saving a lot of time, and network usage statistics have been great because it helps us make data-driven decisions easily. Delivery to the end-user environment has been quicker and more efficient, hence improving our productivity overall in my organization.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
My experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing is that the prices are good.
Which other solutions did I evaluate?
Before choosing Cisco Crosswork Network Insights, I evaluated other options, including Progress WhatsUp Gold .
