Compare Untangle Command Center vs. Verax OSS/BSS Suite

Overseeing the security of widely distributed networks can prove challenging for IT administrators and managed service providers. Untangle’s Command Center, a cloud-based interface, empowers administrators to efficiently manage networks across various locations with ease. This platform simplifies the monitoring and management of NG Firewall or Micro Edge appliances, whether you are setting them up for the first time through zero-touch provisioning or implementing policy updates throughout your network. Collaborations with cybersecurity leaders like Bitdefender, Malwarebytes, and Webroot enable users to detect threats and initiate endpoint protection scans seamlessly. Command Center delivers the user-friendly experience that Untangle is known for, offering a centralized view for streamlined network management. Additionally, its integration with these security partners allows administrators not only to monitor the health of remote NG Firewalls and Micro Edge devices but also to keep an eye on connected endpoints throughout the network, ensuring comprehensive protection. This level of visibility helps in proactively addressing potential security issues before they escalate into larger problems.

A comprehensive range of OSS/BSS applications is available, encompassing Customer Care and Billing, a Self Care Portal, Asset Management and Service Desk, Network Management, and Application Performance Monitoring, as well as Infrastructure Planning and Buildout. Services can be swiftly defined, provisioned, monitored, and billed, allowing for quick revenue generation. These applications are designed to seamlessly integrate with both modern and legacy systems, offering flexibility and extensibility with rapid deployment capabilities. Businesses can prioritize deploying the most crucial applications first, with the option to add more as needed. Verax Customer Care & Billing (CCB) facilitates both pre-paid and post-paid billing for various products and services, consolidating four essential business applications—Customer Care, Product Catalog, Self Care, and Billing—into a single platform, which minimizes integration costs and time while enhancing time-to-market at a competitive price point. Furthermore, CCB is pre-integrated with Verax OSS applications such as NMS, Service Desk, and Provisioning, thereby simplifying the integration process between OSS and BSS and delivering advanced "looking glass" capabilities for enhanced operational oversight. This integrated approach not only streamlines business operations but also fosters a more agile response to market demands.
