More Juniper Mist Premium Analytics Cons →

"The GUI interface and dashboards could be more attractive to the customer.""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.""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 price of the solution could be reduced.""They require a lot of manual effort as traffic flows, networks, and formal times change."

More NETSCOUT nGeniusPULSE Cons →

"I would like for it to have a smaller footprint of the virtual appliance and better performance.""I would like to see improvements made to the user guide.""Room for improvement exists in filtering in the packet decode."
