"You can have thousands of devices inside and hundreds of thousands of interphases without a problem."
"The integration to the other products that we use: NFA, we use ADA, we use Spectrum; and CAPM integrates all those into a single pane of glass."
"It is very easy to add devices; just be aware that it requires SNMP to be enabled."
"The ability to very quickly and graphically navigate around, being able to zoom in to a timeframe, apply it to all the other panels... are all very intuitive."
"The ability to quickly do drag and drop customized reports for dashboards."
"When devices are having performance issues, it proactively build dashboards which allow us to go and do health checks, and resolve problems before they become an issue."
"When we deployed it, right out of the box we were able to stand up Performance Management within two weeks, in our production environment, with full discovery and relevant information, actual information, that we could use in our command center, our 24/7 operations center."
"Downloads and records are the most valuable features."
"This solution is more applications reference architecture focused. Its benefit is that it specializes in that space."
"The most valuable feature is the way it handles data, from Layer 2 up to Layer 7. We can see everything that happens in the network."
"Not only can you look at the protocol import level. It also has a live PCAP analysis."
"There are many valuable features in this product, but probably the biggest is the customization capability it has."

"This may be available by now but for server space, when it comes to the disk file system, I'd like to see that graphically represented, or the trend, rather than what I'm seeing now."
"This tool gathers so much data, which makes it hard to convert over. To upgrade it, you really need the solution backed up. That is the issue that we are facing right now."
"The solution could improve the database model. It is also not very good because they have a lot of interconnections with other data sources, such as NFA and VNA."
"Some of the individual report views, the way some of the columns sort, there's room for improvement in giving us more flexibility in being able to sort reports based, for example, on what columns the metrics fall under."
"Global synchronization errors. Sometimes it just doesn't finish in time due to the load."
"There are some areas in the technology right now, like with VMs, where we are lacking with our abilities to get inside the VM to monitor traffic within the machine."
"When it goes through discovery, or whatever it is doing in the back-end that slows it down, sometimes we get some failures with it. "
"Product has issue collecting IP SLA data."
"This solution would be improved if it had the ability to retain data longer."
"I would improve the Rule-Based Access Control (RBAC) by providing granular access control to the data."
"Network visibility is something that needs to be improved."
"We'd like to see a local presence within the region in order to have seamless service whether it's the support, the implementation, or professional services."
"They have a new solution, ExtraHop Reveal(x), and I think it needs improvement."
"They either have to go broad or decide what their bread and butter is and get really good at that."
