Compare Paessler PRTG vs. SolarWinds NetFlow Traffic Analyzer

Paessler PRTG is an all-inclusive monitoring solution with an intuitive, user-friendly interface powered by a cutting-edge monitoring engine. It optimizes connections and workloads, reduces operational costs, and prevents outages. It also saves time and controls service level agreements (SLAs). This solution includes specialized monitoring features such as flexible alerting, cluster failover, distributed monitoring, maps, dashboards, and in-depth reporting.

NetFlow Traffic Analyzer and bandwidth management tools simplify the process of NetFlow analysis and bandwidth oversight. Enhance your NetFlow monitoring functionality by integrating NetFlow Traffic Analyzer with Network Performance Monitor, enabling you to assess your network, identify traffic trends, and mitigate bandwidth-intensive applications. With the combined capabilities of NetFlow Traffic Analyzer (NTA) and User Device Tracker, you can achieve quicker issue resolution, improved operational efficiency, and a clearer understanding of potentially harmful or improperly formatted traffic patterns. These tools work in harmony with the Orion Platform suite, including Network Performance Monitor and Network Configuration Manager. By pairing NTA with Network Configuration Manager (NCM), you can visualize traffic interactions according to policies right from the NCM Policy Details page. Gain insights from both IPv4 and IPv6 flow records while monitoring various flow data types such as Cisco NetFlow, Juniper J-Flow, sFlow, Huawei NetStream, and IPFIX, allowing you to pinpoint which applications and protocols are utilizing the most bandwidth in your network. Ultimately, this comprehensive approach to network monitoring empowers organizations to maintain optimal performance and security.
