Used for troubleshooting and receiving real-time alerts and works on artificial intelligence

I always recommend Marvis to every customer because it requires no additional direct involvement. Marvis has been developed well using AI and machine learning technology. Its AI engine updates itself regularly, which is a beneficial feature. I request that Juniper integrate a cloud identity engine and simplify the Microsoft Azure Active Directory Services integration with the SRX hardware firewall. Additionally, the SRX firewall needs a more robust graphical user interface. Currently, we can only configure the SRX using the CLI; if a wrong command is entered, restoring it cannot be easy. Overall, I rate the solution a nine out of ten.

Offers detailed network monitoring but requires improvement in deployment complexity and pricing

The price is really high, making it difficult for many financial companies to purchase immediately; it will take time for them to afford any budget for the purchase. The traffic data correlation feature's effectiveness with performance issues for clients remains uncertain as there are questions that need to be addressed through engineers regarding how many customers are actually using it. Regarding pricing and value for money, while the solution has the potential to save time and money for clients in the long term, monitoring solutions for performance management or network monitoring do not cause immediate damage to a company. It could lead to damage over time, but financial and management teams typically cannot see the immediate crisis. This is why many big companies Samsung and Hyundai try to build their own monitoring solutions using open-source tools and their own engineers, though it has not been successful.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Marvis Virtual Network Assistant uses AI to find problems or to get information from devices."

"If you ask any questions about Marvis, it will respond immediately and use some solution. It will be very easy and save you time."

"The ability of the dashboards is useful for discover, mapping and understanding of application behaviour."

"NGeniusONE provides us with increased visibility while conducting a deployment."

"We are using nGeniusONE to run our bandwidth capacity management reports; in the past, we used to be very reactive and depend a lot on suppliers to tell us which sites are our hot sites with high bandwidth utilization, and now we do this in a much more proactive way and are moving to a more predictive approach in that aspect, thanks to nGeniusONE."

"The solution transforms packet wire data into real-time data that is actionable. It helps us with faster detection of issues and allows us to create alerts."

"The product is very good. We have very few problems."

"The real-time insights that NETSCOUT nGeniusONE provides are very helpful."

"Packet decode and bandwidth analysis reports are the two most valuable features."

"This solution has saved us more than $50,000 a month and freed up 30 percent of our bandwidth."

Cons

"It should add real-time application visibility."

"It would be a good idea to integrate the solution to support other vendors besides Juniper."

"I would like to see improvement in the user experience. It's hard to manage it. We need a dedicated, highly-qualified person, compared to similar tools. Obviously, it's in a higher bracket, salary-wise. That's something the NETSCOUT team needs to focus on. It's a completely niche-skill technology, where we need to have the skills to manage, maintain, and deploy it."

"The scalability needs some work. From a probe perspective, we are limited to a certain amount of throughput on the devices themselves."

"Some help screens would be nice, especially if we bring on new operators. It would be great to see if they have more helpful tips available."

"The current solution is not easy to scale, because it is an appliance-based solution. So, you have to swap everything out."

"The feature I am looking for is the Arbor technology, especially to run in parallel with our firewall."

"The initial setup was complex, and deployment took around six months."

"The solution could do more for security. It should offer more security-related features."

"One of the products we use is SolarWinds, and it provides a very cool mapping of an agent from end-to-end. If NETSCOUT could somehow implement that into their design... make it quicker and easier to get those net paths, it would be huge."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Marvis Virtual Network Assistant is not an expensive solution."

"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."

"If you are able and you are willing to use everything that Netscout provides to you, it's probably a relatively fair price. The problem is that it's such a large and such a complex tool that I'm not sure that many companies would be able to use it entirely, the way it's expected to be used."

"The biggest problem we have with this product is the expense."

"Make sure you get the low down on your licensing and understand the licensing requirements before making a purchase, especially when it comes to an upgrade. Make sure that it suits your needs before you commit to it. For example, we purchased ATA at version 6.2.1. At that time, the licensing covered everything we need. NETSCOUT comes out with 6.2.2, stating that in order to upgrade, you had to purchase CyberStream licensing. Now that requires some additional funding from both a capital investment and a maintenance cost. That's something that should have been said, "Well, if you want these additional features, you will need to purchase these CyberStreams." Otherwise, we should be allowed to continue on the basic operations as it is now through the newer releases without being stuck."

"The price is only for acquisition; it's not a licence."

"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."

"The product is too expensive compared to other products."

"The scalability becomes very expensive quickly."
