Top Applications, Top Senders and the likes.

The information is provided in comprehensive reports – as Top Protocols, WhatsUp Gold then analyzes the raw data, and provides pertinent insights into traffic identification/analysis, trends identification and QoS verification. Using SNMP, WhatsUp Gold can automatically identify Cisco NetFlow-enabled devices, and can automatically configure the device to send NetFlow Network behavior analysis, security issues, performance and application monitoring and bandwidth consumption. Our Fortinet didn't want to play nice without some time spend tweaking things and contacting ME for some additional support.WhatsUp Gold makes extensive use of raw NetFlow data to provide insights into traffic patterns,

CONSĬan be a little difficult to configure with some firewalls.

I have a lot more capability that our agency did prior to switching to ME products. ME just gives you SOOO much within their software.

So either you get the stand-alone software or you buy the whole suite, but they function the same.Overall Features. Either just some data and feature sharing via API, or fully being integrated into another larger product like Netflow is with Opmanager. Nearly everything ME puts out talks with their other products in some way. Configuration for Netflow Collector, Configuration on the Network Routers, Configuration on the NorthStar Application Server, Viewing Demands in the Web UI. Manageengine is very competitive with their pricing and their software performs as well as, or better than competitors multiple times more expensive. The integration as made things so much easier for our Network Admins to go to one place and get all the info they need on our network health. Overall we are glad we get it as an addon to the greater Opmanager product that we purchased.
