"The VoLTE model, call search and Media Monitor were essential when we launched VoLTE. We're relying heavily on them to troubleshoot our VoLTE calls."
"The valuable features include packet analysis, packet capture, and [that] it's easy to use."
"If a lot of traffic from one site is hitting AWS Cloud or the data center, then we want to know which client is utilizing the most bandwidth. We will work with nGeniusONE to troubleshoot the issue."
"The installation process is straightforward."
"Network faults are easily and quickly identified through dashboards and drill down."
"The most valuable features are visibility, real-time, on-demand."
"It helps us get to the root cause quickly. It helps us find massive error codes, then we drill down on that error code, knowing that is the source of our problem."
"Deep packet inspection is probably the strongest feature."
"A little bit better documentation on the details is needed because this subject is not easy sometimes to understand, which limits the capability of the software."
"I would love to have them reassemble fragmented packets. That would be a very big plus in my book."
"NETSCOUT nGeniusONE is a complex product since it deals in areas like network packet brokers and packet analysis, making the tool complicated for end users."
"Some of the filters could be easier to see and to set up. That's the only thing that I've ever had any trouble with."
"NG1 has been stable for a while in our environment - at least we have what we needed. But with nBA, there's a lot of room for improvement."
"The solution could do more for security. It should offer more security-related features."
"This is a typical thing, but every time they do a major code upgrade, we get hit with some nasty bugs. Some of them literally stop the whole platform from collecting traffic data. They should really do more Q&A on the software stability before release."
"I'd like to see the nGeniusONE, the nGeniusPULSE, and the OptiView, their three separate products, work a little better together, a little more streamlined."
"here is a big issue with the special way they use InfiniStream to store data."
