Statseeker is a powerful network performance monitor solution. It's fast, scalable, and cost-effective. Statseeker requires only one server or virtual machine to be up and running in minutes. It can also discover your entire network in under an hour without any significant impact on your bandwidth availability. It can monitor networks of all sizes, polling upto one million interfaces every sixty second, and collecting network data like SNMP, ping, NetFlow (sFlow, and J-Flow), sylog and trap messages, SDN configuration, and health metrics. Statseeker performance data are never averaged or rolled up. This eliminates the guesswork when it comes to identifying over- and underestimated infrastructure, root cause analysis, capacity planning, and other tasks. Statseeker's complete data retention means the in-built analytic engine can accurately detect anomalies in performance and forecast network behaviour months in advance. This allows network admins to plan and perform cost-effective, preventative maintenance, instead of fire-fighting problems as they occur. Statseeker's dashboards and out-of-the box reports allow you to troubleshoot and fix problems in your network before users are aware.
