ManageEngine NetFlow Analyzer vs. NetVizura NetFlow Analyzer

If you need to monitor traffic, this is a good choice of application for the price. It does that very well. If you need to take a deep deep dive into the traffic, you will have to use something else but that is just standard with network troubleshooting... it takes multiple applications to get a complete picture... or a lot of money on 1 application. Beyond that, this application does what it is designed to do and does it very well. So to answer this question directly, this application is well suited for time when you need a high-level view of traffic and not suited well for times when you need to see more detailed information of what exactly is being sent.

The capacity planning was a big help in our company as we grew the number of connected locations. Grow or die is pretty much the business model of today but that growth is only as good as the network it travels on. Being able to recommend appropriate network requirements is a big deal in our line of business.

• Network Bandwidth Utilization
• Aid in performance troubleshooting
• Reporting

• Ease of use

• The interface could stand to flow a little better. It is functional, but there is room for improvement.
• The dashboard creation process is just incomplete. For example, it would be nice to be able to add in a widget for IP groups.

• At this point, I don't have any suggestion for improvements.

Because the dashboard is visually appealing and offers a wide range of functionality and users can create tailored reports.

The support is always on point, fast, reliable, and their employees go above and beyond to help when we need it. I have yet to call them on any product we use and not get the issue resolved in a fast and timely manner. Also, they are also very pleasant while on the phone and/or in teh email chain. Overall I just couldn't ask for better.

Each of these solutions does what they aim to do. Based off of cost and need, ManageEngine fit better with our organization. We already use multiple ManageEngine products so bundling was a no brainer.

In comparison to SolarWinds, Scrutinizer, and WhatsUp I would say the ease of setup and the graphical interface. The flow of the interface to monitor bandwidth, performance and detect anomalies makes it a winner over the other three. Compared to PRTG is how it organizes the information and search ability. Wireshark is a quick and dirty look and NetFlow analyzer is more for data mining and analyzing over time.

• Low Budget
• Great results

• Load balancing and qos depending on type of traffic
