ManageEngine NetFlow Analyzer Offers Cisco Medianet Video Traffic Monitoring for Free

User Interface Overhaul, AppFlow Support Round Out Enhancements to Bandwidth Monitoring and Traffic Analysis Tool>

AUSTIN, Texas - December 13, 2011 -ManageEngine, makers of a suite of cost-effective, enterprise-grade network, systems, applications, and security management software solutions, today announced free video traffic monitoring for customers of NetFlow Analyzer, the company’s bandwidth monitoring and traffic analytics tool. Available immediately, NetFlow Analyzer 9.5 makes Cisco Medianet reporting available to users who want to ensure optimum performance of media-rich applications in the network. A 30-day, free trial of NetFlow Analyzer 9.5 with full functionality can be downloaded at http://ow.ly/7Psp5.

Video traffic is on the rise in enterprise networks. Video calling, video conferencing, and other video-heavy applications are quickly moving beyond novelty status to become key business enablers and, for some, business-critical tools. The ability to report on Cisco Medianet video traffic lets NetFlow Analyzer users monitor the critical factors affecting the quality of video traffic and take appropriate fine-tuning measures to ensure their video application delivers an optimal user experience.

"Video can bring an enterprise network to its knees, and the Cisco Medianet support in NetFlow Analyzer is just one of the steps we’re taking to ensure our customers enjoy superior network performance for all of their network applications, including video,” said Vijayarangakannan Rajkumar, product manager at ManageEngine. “We worked diligently to improve the usability of NetFlow Analyzer. In large part, that meant supporting those use cases being embraced by our customers, and video is certainly one of their highest-profile applications."

Beyond free video traffic monitoring, NetFlow Analyzer gains a major facelift.

  • The new user interface offers a Tab view that provides one-click access to any feature or report.
  • The new Grid view lets users view the devices being monitored from one central point, which provides one-click access to statistics for those devices.
  • The new UI offers more space for personalization.
  • NetFlow Analyzer now also supports AppFlow, which is gaining prominence in the industry. Users can fine tune the performance at the user interface level, saving precious minutes and, at the same time, ensuring optimum performance.

ManageEngine customers continue to praise NetFlow Analyzer for usability. Tapan D. Bhat, general manager and business head, managed IT services, Wipro Infotech, said, "NetFlow Analyzer provides centralized traffic analysis for our customers' networks with more than 100 interfaces spread geographically. It enables easy troubleshooting of traffic bottlenecks and helps us in capacity planning. The information provided is user-friendly and enables us to make informed business decisions.
