"We can scale the solution."
"eSight allows me to monitor and solve any problem in the backbone and any switch in real-time."
"The product is stable."

"It will be better if they can make the simple network topology part more presentable. It would also be better if they had API integration and integration with third-party devices."
"The price could be less costly."
