"It has cut our troubleshooting down by days. Once we have a product in place, we show people examples of how it can streamline their troubleshooting process."
"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."
"The technical support is really good. They will go above and beyond, if you are running into a problem. You can go to a sales engineer, who will engage technical support to help you out."
"The ability to troubleshoot customers' connectivity has been very beneficial."
"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."
"It is very rock solid. We hardly have any hardware issues."
"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."
"The real-time troubleshooting and application segregation that you can do within it."
"vSTREAM gives us better visibility and reporting about our network infrastructure, allowing for cost-optimization."

"Only problems that we have had are fiber issues going into the TAPs or vSTREAMs, which are usually local site issues."
"The technology goes end-of-life on us every year, which is why I am looking forward to vSTREAM. I don't like when devices go end-of-life on us so quickly. If we can get more of an advanced notice of when an end-of-life is brought up, because our certification process within the organization takes a while."
"I'd like them to make the product more user-friendly."
"I would like to see an improved level of stitching between IPs."
"The stability depends on who is using the tool, because you only can get as much out of the tool as you put into it. There are a lot of patches for this particular environment, so you have to keep on them. If you lose track of them, then the product is not useful anymore."
"We don't use the single pane of glass view, even though we own it."
"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."
