Great for identifying application interdependencies with helpful support but needs better visualizations
We're just trying to identify the application interdependencies, which normally reside on different servers, including web servers, database servers, enterprise service bus, et cetera, up to your presentation layer before we start moving stuff around. Normally, the reason why we use these tools is to understand what assets we have, where they're deployed, and how they enter and operate before we decide to go move something from point A to point B. The solution is going to allow me to establish a wave or migration plan where you have different waves of migration and then you actually have move groups to try and get your application moved from A to B seamlessly. A to B could be on-premise to on-premise. It could be on-premise to cloud. Et cetera. The solution can tell me what components can I deploy, for example, into a cloud space, without having to refactor my applications since that can be quite time-consuming and costly.

We can set up a dashboard to monitor the status of an entire site, which provides more insight into any issues across devices
One engineer is enough for the solution's maintenance. There has been a significant improvement in Statseeker in the last few versions. It includes a wallet map and features we plan to implement when deploying the latest or penultimate versions across all our sites. This will significantly assist in identifying sites surpassing thresholds or KPIs, making issue detection much more accessible. The threshold feature is handy for identifying delays and major outages. This graphical map enables us to quickly assess the scope of nationwide problems, allowing for swift action and efficient reporting to management and service providers. This tool facilitates monitoring by visualizing all network elements with their respective coordinates, highlighting any downtimes or issues through color-coded green for operational, orange for approaching thresholds, yellow for minor alarms, and red for critical issues. The tool is a monitoring tool that helps in identifying problems. It is necessary to have someone trained to set up the dashboards because they might require some programming or specific configuration skills. Once it's configured, it works well. It's not as straightforward as other tools where you plug in the device, and everything works. With Statseeker, you still need to put in some effort to set up your dashboard properly. It requires someone with good training and proficiency in setting up these dashboards. They can benefit the technical and operations teams, providing useful insights into the network and the executive management team to receive reports on the overall network health. Overall, I rate the solution a seven out of ten.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"ExtraHop is far ahead of anything comparable in the industry."
"It's a must-have solution for large IT Operations, providing the ability to analyze infrastructure and application-related performance and data from the wire perspective."
"This solution is more applications reference architecture focused. Its benefit is that it specializes in that space."
"ExtraHop came out with the best price, and I think that it gives us a broader view of our network."
"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."
"It gives you full 360-degree visibility into your entire infrastructure."
"We have been able to improve the mean time to resolution by several hours in some cases."
"Wire data analytics."
"This is a great product for anybody looking for network monitoring, and I would highly recommend it."
"The most important feature is just the fact that it doesn't aggregate the information up, and I can look at detailed information going back quite a long time."
"I like this product and would recommend it to a colleague at another company."
"The solution reduces the complexity of our network monitoring because it can make my engineers do their jobs faster."
"If you want something that is easy to use and catches the basics, especially for your first line people, then this is the product to go with."
"Statseeker helps reduce the complexity of our network monitoring because it's real-time, or somewhat real-time, so we're able to see stuff quickly and react to it."
"Statseeker is very fast and fantastic in terms of granularity of network visibility, letting us get down to per-minute statistics that are really useful for diagnosing problems and troubleshooting traffic hop by hop."
"The monitoring provided by this solution helps us to track down and solve issues."
 

Cons

"They have a new solution, ExtraHop Reveal(x), and I think it needs improvement."
"There is room for improvement in the security part. They have a new solution, ExtraHop Reveal(x), and I think it needs improvement."
"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."
"I would improve the Rule-Based Access Control (RBAC) by providing granular access control to the data."
"The improvement that would make the most impact would be expanding on the new EXA big data back end."
"Network visibility is something that needs to be improved."
"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."
"I would like to see fully automatic updates so that our version is always current."
"Maybe they could provide a little bit more flexibility on creating custom dashboards."
"I do not feel that this solution is very scalable."
"The interface could improve a little bit. I find with new users, I tend to have to spend a bit of time walking them through how to use the interface."
"In terms of being able to see everything at once, Statseeker is not quite there yet."
"That user interface for selecting things needs to be a little more intuitive."
"The user interface needs to be made more intuitive."
"It could use more features on Netflow analyser, such as time series graphs and a single network export UDP port and UDP forwarding."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price of this solution for our environment is about £650,000 ($855,000 USD) for three years."
"The pricing is higher than other solutions, but with such good features, I think it's worth it."
"The pricing is fair considering the value provided."
"Compared to other solutions such as Zabbix and AKiPS, this solution is very well priced."
"The yearly cost varies as per the number of devices being monitored. The cost for 25,000 devices is about $4500."
"It's probably $5K a year for the license."
"We now feel the pricing is a good value. Previously we had a just a normal license but now we've got an Enterprise license. Since the Enterprise, it's been a lot better value. We did think it was pretty expensive before, but with the Enterprise license it's almost less than half that price. If you have a number of accounts within the organization that use Statseeker, I would suggest get the Enterprise license."
"We pay somewhere between $5,000 and $8,000 yearly in licensing fees."
"This tool would probably be priced well if it had deeper NetFlow capabilities, but for our use case, in particular, we're only recovering ports after ninety days and looking at circuit congestion, it's pretty pricey."
"We paid $5,000 to $10,000 a year in maintenance."
"Statseeker is pretty cheap."
