Find out what your peers are saying about Zabbix, Datadog, Auvik and others in Network Monitoring Software."The single dashboard is a valuable feature."
"We can manage the entire system across the network and troubleshoot the pain points."
"From a security standpoint, it is just seeing pockets as well. Visibility is very key for us."
"Being able to graph and show data to management has improved our organization. We can show the data to the higher-ups. It shows them that it's picking up on these anomalies and doing its job."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is data hoarding because it catches threats on a frequent basis that we had no idea of."
"The most valuable feature is anomaly detection, where it finds things that are not allowed internally."
"The solution's analytics and thrust detection capabilities are good. We're still adjusting it. It's a little hypersensitive, but it is working right now."
"The most valuable features of this solution are the logging, keeping threats under control, and keeping our data and environment secure."
"There are already many functionalities, so I don't think there is anything to improve."
"The most valuable features are encrypted threat analysis and the ability to run jobs on entire flows."
"The solution is straightforward to set up."
"The most valuable feature for improving network visibility with Gigamon is the packet filtering capability."
"It is a good product. It provides network visibility, which is important. Gigamon can bring some optimizations to my network. It is helpful for security inspection, and it makes my firewall work fast because my firewall doesn't have to do the inspection of the SSL connections, for example."
"It has high stability."
"The tool's most valuable feature is the encryption feature. From a security perspective, the solution hasn't significantly strengthened our security posture. However, it has greatly improved performance by streamlining encryption processes and avoiding encryption at multiple layers. This has also simplified troubleshooting, as we can whitelist certain processes."
"It offers straightforward integration."
"The most valuable feature is NetFlow."
"The Wi-Fi side needs improvement."
"The technical support needs improvement."
"We haven't seen ROI."
"I would like to see a hybrid solution that can work without being connected directly to the internet for those destinations."
"Better integration between Cisco Secure Network Analytics and Cisco Secure Workload would be beneficial."
"Cisco Stealthwatch needs more integration with device discovery. We have to do a lot of hard work to figure out what things are. Better service integration is required."
"Cisco could improve the administration for the customers."
"Initially, I felt Cisco Secure Network Analytics lacked integration with Splunk."
"One thing I would like to see improved is if it could automatically be tied through ISE, instead of you having to manually get notifications and disable it yourself."
"The initial setup is complex, as there is a lot to configure."
"The security should be improved."
"They should increase the solution's cluster capacity."
"In terms of improvement, while the initial setup is not overly complicated, we did encounter a few issues."
"It only inspects a specific kind of traffic. There should be different kinds of use cases."
"The graphical user interface could be improved."
"The Gigamon Deep Observability Pipeline should have a feature showing the traffic flow within its platform. Currently, customers have to use separate tools for monitoring, which is inconvenient. If it had its visibility feature, it would make monitoring easier and more complete without needing extra tools."
"Its filtering feature needs improvement."
