ExtraHop is going to replace our packet capture and storage technology since it not only detects network security breaches but can also have sensors installed throughout our network to look at historical packet captures for analysis. ExtraHop is well suited for threat mitigation, network segmentation, and threat analysis of the network.

It’s best for troubleshooting issues that require a packet level analysis. By having source/destination you can have a view into how the packets are traversing the network. If alerts/baselines are set up it can help identify something out of the norm. Very useful for VoIP applications as well. Would not recommend for small scale environments.

Pros
  • Extrahop can perform health monitoring end to end if you have multiple probes deployed in your network, the intelligence engine can easily help you to compare and data collected from different hops and help you to narrow down the issue to a specific part of your end to end network.
  • Extrahop is not just analyzing and monitoring the health of the network, actually, its deep-dive analysis engine can perform an analysis from the network layer up to the application layer. It's easy to identify the root cause whether it's a network issue or something wrong in the application, save the time to have the issue go around again and again between network team and application team to blame each other.
  • Extrahop provides good programming functionalities allowing the user to do their specific programing to meet the requirement of how they design to better operate the service.

  • The graphical interface has to be the key benefit of NetScout. I am more of a packet analyzer but the interface gives the upper levels easier view into the network.
  • The breakdown of sites is useful.
  • The ability of the break the traffic down and go into the packet analyzer straight from the graphical interface. Saves a lot of time writing filters with just simple clicks.

Usability
ExtraHop fits perfectly into the nist security framework to ensure the network is monitored and protected from anomalous behaviors.
Read full review
It provides a lot of useful information, but it's not always easy/intuitive to find it. It really needs to get a fully functional API integrated to support automation and integration with other monitoring and analytics tools to enable faster decision making. On the other hand, it gathers a lot of useful information from complex networks that are useful for capacity management and faster incident isolation and resolution.

We have a dedicated OSE who has been very helpful. Besides that, we have little experience beyond this specific model

NETSCOUT nGeniusONE is the best solution which we have encountered so far. The best part about this is that it can be integrated with various third party tool for more visibility and behavior analysis. The dashboard is loaded with a lot of useful features which gives the complete trend analysis of connectivity loss and network flaps and helps to identify the critical sites which is not present in other technology solution. This is an incredible network performance monitoring tool
