Pros
"We can manage the entire system across the network and troubleshoot the pain points."

More Juniper Mist Premium Analytics Pros →

"I love the single pane of glass view. It makes it easier to not have to navigate everywhere. It allows more simplistic visibility, without having to go from tool to tool to tool, or from window to window to window.""The ability to troubleshoot customers' connectivity has been very beneficial.""It helps us get to root cause quickly. With utilization and consumption of bandwidth, we can usually see what application is taking as much as they should (or shouldn't), then account for it accordingly.""It's an easy product to set up.""The tool has the ability to look back within a month's data. It is very easy to navigate within the tool and troubleshoot the problem, compared to other solutions that we've used in the past.""It is very rock solid. We hardly have any hardware issues.""The real-time troubleshooting and application segregation that you can do within it.""When we have mobile operators who are signal partners, where one is the roaming host and another is the roamer, we are able to see their traffic. Their packets are able to detect if any faults to develop, and at what point they fail."

More NETSCOUT InfiniStreamNG Pros →

"I like the single pane of glass view because it presents everything in one window, obviously. You can see it all. With a quick glance, you get a pretty good snapshot of what's going on in a particular situation.""This is a very reliable and complete solution for troubleshooting and monitoring environments.""I like the single pane of glass view. I like being able to go to one place instead of having to hunt around for everything.""The most valuable feature of NETSCOUT nGeniusPULSE is the network troubleshooting analysis. You can pinpoint an issue before it could shut down the network.""The most valuable features of this solution are monitoring and maintaining traffic queuing, as well as seeing who is using the bandwidth."

Cons
"The Wi-Fi side needs improvement."

More Juniper Mist Premium Analytics Cons →

"The single pane of glass feed still needs work.""I'd like them to make the product more user-friendly.""It's not able to communicate with our probes.""Only problems that we have had are fiber issues going into the TAPs or vSTREAMs, which are usually local site issues.""There is a timeout feature that we have been asking for awhile.""Being able to manage the packet flow switches in nGeniusONE would be great.""The monitoring and reporting tool needs improvement. Users want more information, such as the level of detail when doing a packet analysis. They want more detail to be able to isolate down to a specific point.""I would like to see an improved level of stitching between IPs."

More NETSCOUT InfiniStreamNG Cons →

"In terms of additional features, I would like to see better event notification. Right now, we put in an email address to receive an alert and it receives every event and every alert that comes out. We need something a little more granular.""The GUI interface and dashboards could be more attractive to the customer.""They require a lot of manual effort as traffic flows, networks, and formal times change.""Usability is the area with the biggest room for improvement. We've found that with NETSCOUT, while it's a fantastic product, the usability is a major factor because there are just way too many clicks. It's obvious, from our experience, that the people who are developing the product aren't using it.""The price of the solution could be reduced."

  • "To capture more with the solution that we bought, you have to buy another InfiniStreamNG, and there are only four ports in the back."
  • "The scalability is good, but it comes at a cost. E.g., if you need 100 InfiniStream because you are sending gigs or terabytes of data to one InfiniStream, then you will have to purchase another InfiniStream, which are not cheap."
  • "It can be scalable. It just costs too much. With a company as big as ours, it gets too expensive to accommodate every single site."
  • "This product could be cheaper."
  • "The price is a little high."
  • "I would like it to be more scalable with less spend."
  • More NETSCOUT InfiniStreamNG Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "Cost is contracted on a yearly basis. There is no additional cost beyond the standard licensing."
  • "The price of NETSCOUT nGeniusPULSE is high. The other solutions are less expensive but we cannot depend on the other solutions, they are not as stable."
