Helpful support agents, beneficial issue detection, and high availability
The creation of charts and real-time windows was somewhat cumbersome. The vendor's website had an application called App Agent that required improvement. This API was designed to track message rates between microservers ingested into a microservice memory map. It allowed users to monitor the number of transactions that occurred at specific points within the application, and it was quite impressive. However, it had some limitations, and it mainly served as a tool for basic tracking. The protocols it employed could reveal the type of server-to-server communication and the specific order types, but it was not able to provide a more in-depth analysis of the application. The vendor has the potential to integrate application metrics more extensively into their product suite. The product suite could benefit from more out-of-the-box predictive analytics capabilities, such as projecting market or symbol movements. However, it is unclear whether the vendor currently provides this functionality. Users may need to adjust their software to perform such analysis independently.

We can set up a dashboard to monitor the status of an entire site, which provides more insight into any issues across devices
One engineer is enough for the solution's maintenance. There has been a significant improvement in Statseeker in the last few versions. It includes a wallet map and features we plan to implement when deploying the latest or penultimate versions across all our sites. This will significantly assist in identifying sites surpassing thresholds or KPIs, making issue detection much more accessible. The threshold feature is handy for identifying delays and major outages. This graphical map enables us to quickly assess the scope of nationwide problems, allowing for swift action and efficient reporting to management and service providers. This tool facilitates monitoring by visualizing all network elements with their respective coordinates, highlighting any downtimes or issues through color-coded green for operational, orange for approaching thresholds, yellow for minor alarms, and red for critical issues. The tool is a monitoring tool that helps in identifying problems. It is necessary to have someone trained to set up the dashboards because they might require some programming or specific configuration skills. Once it's configured, it works well. It's not as straightforward as other tools where you plug in the device, and everything works. With Statseeker, you still need to put in some effort to set up your dashboard properly. It requires someone with good training and proficiency in setting up these dashboards. They can benefit the technical and operations teams, providing useful insights into the network and the executive management team to receive reports on the overall network health. Overall, I rate the solution a seven out of ten.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It allows us to trace the flow. The logic is built sufficiently for us to be able to break down clients' orders, underlying child orders, and execution. Thus, it's a good way for us to trace client flow through a myriad of different internal systems."
"In terms of what it does, I'd give Corvil a ten out of ten; I've never seen a tool like it."
"It is a market leader in latency detection and monitoring with extremely precise time stamping even over a wide area."
"We're able to quickly drill down and find answers to events that are happening in real-time, using Corvil's analytics tools. That's the feature which is most in the spotlight..."
"Corvil is really useful, if you want to produce statistics for your application across different platforms then I would definitely recommend it."
"In the sense that it helps us identify performance issues, it does give us a performance advantage over competitors."
"The performance metrics are pretty good. We've got everything from the network layer to the actual application layer. We can see what's going on with things like sending time and batching."
"The analytics features of Corvil are really good... As long as you know what the field is in the message, you can build your metrics based on that field... It means you can do the analytics that you actually care for. You can customize it..."
"We haven't encountered any issues with stability."
"I believe Statseeker has reduced the complexity of our network monitoring, providing real-time alerts and on-demand graphs that improve our network availability."
"Overall, Statseeker has reduced the complexity of our network monitoring once it's installed."
"Summary Reports provide a quick way to identify where potential issues are. Drill-downs provide more granular details very quickly."
"The most important feature is just the fact that it doesn't aggregate the information up, and I can look at detailed information going back quite a long time."
"Statseeker reduces the complexity of your network monitoring."
"This solution is used by our network operations center to identify down interfaces and predict the capacity on WAN circuits, as well as other circuits, to help us plan for upgrading."
"This solution will help to find problem endpoints sooner, or other issues such as throughput and network congestion."
 

Cons

"With the architecture that Corvil is built on, it's cumbersome."
"Alerting isn't great... you can only put in one email address in. And that's for all kinds of alerting on the box."
"In terms of performance analysis, if you really want to dig down into the minutiae and get statistics on the important things... that would be the only piece lacking because, in our environment, we have thousands and thousands of symbols. With the architecture that Corvil is built on, it's cumbersome."
"While the product is scalable, it's not easy to scale. It needs investment hardware and network bandwidth consideration. It's not something you can just do overnight."
"Overall, the Corvil device needs a little bit of training for people to handle it. If that could be reduced and made more user-friendly, more intuitive, it would be better."
"Sometimes, when you are saving any configuration and making changes, there are times something is missing. An error comes up, or sometimes there is no error, and the errors are not very straightforward as to the issue."
"It is perceived as an expensive option, even in the financial services sector."
"Before I got the Corvil training... one thing that was not very efficient was that every time you had to create a new stream or a new session from within Corvil... you had to tell it what protocol the message is going to come through and how to correlate messages, etc... After I went for the training, they had already added these nice features in the 9.4 version where it could do auto-discovery... Based on the traffic that it has already seen, it could create sessions on the fly."
"That user interface for selecting things needs to be a little more intuitive."
"It doesn't do absolutely everything and it will require some additional software or hardware support to be a complete single solution."
"I would like to see a friendlier user interface in the administration tool."
"The user interface needs to be made more intuitive."
"It may be helpful to have more options in the alerting section."
"I’ve seen two Statseeker techs work several hours to fix it."
"Technical support for this solution is bad, as is everything with Cisco support."
"I would like to see the solution incorporate diagnosis of the workstation."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It is pricey versus its competitors."
"We bought a box from Corvil and it was $200,000 for one big CNE. Then there are obviously the recurring maintenance fees. The licensing is perpetual but the maintenance fees are not."
"Pico Corvil Analytics is expensive. There are several competitors in the market. Selling this solution to a trading firm might be challenging as there are several other solutions available that can perform basic similar operations, such as using Wireshark and Python scripts to obtain the required values. However, that does not nearly approach the comprehensive end-2-end automated depth of metrics and their correlations that Pico Corvil Analytics provides."
"I like the way they've decoupled the hardware now... Everything's based on the licensing side now. The way they do the packs is fair. It's very flexible in that we're not charged per decoder, we're charged for a certain pack. Whether we use one decoder or 20 decoders, as long as they're in the same pack, there's no extra charge. Expensive but fair is how I'd summarize it."
"The pricing is very expensive. Corvil could work on the pricing."
"As I am working more with Corvil, it looks like it is improving diagnostic times."
"Corvil has reduced the time it takes us to isolate root causes."
"We pay a yearly maintenance fee of approximately $40,000 USD."
"We pay somewhere between $5,000 and $8,000 yearly in licensing fees."
"We paid $5,000 to $10,000 a year in maintenance."
"Compared to other solutions such as Zabbix and AKiPS, this solution is very well priced."
"This tool would probably be priced well if it had deeper NetFlow capabilities, but for our use case, in particular, we're only recovering ports after ninety days and looking at circuit congestion, it's pretty pricey."
"We have permanent licenses so there's really no cost, other than ongoing maintenance. When I think about it, that's running us about $20,000 a year."
"Pricing is reasonable but licensing should unlimited."
"The licensing cost is yearly and it's $5,000 to $8,000, I think."
