Users value data-driven insights for optimizing business operations
The most important features are the site-to-site user experience, including details like how many users are on a site, the number of users on an SSID, and identifying guest users in business premises. These features help in understanding peak times during business hours and are highly valued by customers in Qatar.
HT
Newwork And Collaboration Supervisor at Nafeza
Monitoring has improved bandwidth insights and application diagnosis but setup and costs still need work
They need room for improvement about the spare parts. There are shortages in Egypt in their stock. We tried to make RMA for specific parts, and it took a long time. Comparing this to a vendor like Cisco, who provides any component next business day, NETSCOUT nGeniusONE took a long time. This needs more improvement. I believe it is expensive. They need to reduce its budget a little bit. Comparing to other solutions, it is very expensive.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The single dashboard is a valuable feature."
"The solution is stable due to its Cloud-based nature, which eliminates downtime or crashing issues."
"We can manage the entire system across the network and troubleshoot the pain points."
"We have seen a measurable decrease in mean time to know and mean time to repair, and our overall troubleshooting time, in most cases, is down to a day, as opposed to multiple days."
"It has played an integral part in providing valuable information in a critical arena."
"It's a consolidated, single tool that talks to multiple platforms. It's not vendor-proprietary; it's independent. It provides interoperability with different products, whether they are routing products, switching products, wireless, wired, load balancing, or proxy. It works with anything you can name."
"We are using nGeniusONE to run our bandwidth capacity management reports. In the past, we used to be very reactive, we used to depend a lot on suppliers to tell us which sites are our hot sites, meaning, which have high bandwidth utilization. Now we do this in a much more proactive way and we are moving to a more predictive approach in that aspect, thanks to nGeniusONE."
"It is an easy-to-scale platform."
"This solution provides us with increased visibility while conducting an IT deployment, and when we have any type of outage and we dig into it, we are able to tell what the root cause is instead of having to go through Wireshark, etc."
"Packet decode and bandwidth analysis reports are the two most valuable features."
"It has helped with the operations teams, who have been able to collect information and troubleshoot with the application."
 

Cons

"Before October 2024, there was room for improvement in the UI to make it more user-friendly. The Client Insight page on Juniper Mist Premium Analytics could be made simpler."
"The Wi-Fi side needs improvement."
"The technical support needs improvement."
"It's not an easy system, it's a very technical system."
"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."
"The product was lacking for awhile when they did the Arbor acquisition. I was waiting to see more security stuff, which they did eventually add, and is now impressive."
"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."
"It would be beneficial to see more AI capabilities included in nGeniusONE to further streamline processes and allow lower-level tech support to handle issues more effectively without escalating them."
"I think it could have an easier to understand interface."
"In previous versions, we used to have an icon on the dashboard when the situation analysis would present an alert. It would be nice if that would be made available on the dashboard again. Something that could be customizable to only illuminate on certain applications."
"We would like more encryption of customer data, because we have a very security conscious company. We have a lot of regulation coming in which requires us to make customer data private."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution is expensive."
"It can be expensive, but if you have a good configuration, based on what you are looking for, it's okay, it's manageable."
"The price is only for acquisition; it's not a licence."
"The license becomes cost prohibitive very quickly."
"Cost is probably the biggest drawback. Compared to some of the newer vendors that have popped up in the space, it's definitely more on the expensive side... [But] it's been able to keep its value, even in the face of the cheaper competition."
"It is a little overall pricey and expensive, but you get what you pay for."
"The product is too expensive compared to other products."
"I rate the price of NETSCOUT nGeniusONE a four out of five."
"Like any company, we always want better pricing. The pricing is okay, but it's not a cheap solution. When you want to deploy it across an enterprise as large as ours, you go into seven figures. It's not a cheap solution to get out there."
