Bendigo Bank improves network and application performance with NetQoS ReporterAnalyzer.

The worst way to manage your network is to make your decisions based on assumptions; you need to have the true data to work with…NetQoS helped with that by letting us confirm that sometimes, the data transport isn’t the problem. Sometimes the application isn’t performing, or the server is overutilized.

American Heart Association discusses how it is using NetQoS products to improve application delivery with better collaboration among its IT groups.

AHA did a 30-day evaluation of NetQoS; the results were obvious and so was the business case.

In a bid to help organizations assess how well VoIP systems are delivering end-user services and identify the network causes of quality issues, NetQoS Inc. has introduced NetQoS VoIP Monitor. NetQoS VoIP Monitor is a network-based VoIP solution that combines quality of experience with network performance to accelerate troubleshooting, without server agents or probes.

The performance monitoring company, best known for its ability to track the performance of applications across wide area networks, will provide network operators with the big picture view of how network anomalies affect the quality of voice traffic. Specifically, NetQoS VOIP Monitor gathers call setup and call quality metrics and combines such data with underlying network performance data gathered by the NetQoS Performance Center.

NetQoS helps Cisco with performance

This time around Cisco looked to network performance management vendor NetQoS to pump up its Wide Area Application Services (WAAS) product with monitoring and reporting technology. And Cisco was smart to do so.

Cisco adds security, monitoring to WAN optimization gear; WAAS upgrades add encryption, NetQoS reports
Network World - July 25, 2007

Cisco is also announcing a relationship with NetQoS that results in more detailed reports about how well user transaction times improve using WAAS, application by application. The relationship puts NetQoS software to its WAN optimization gear so it can generate more data about application performance than is produced by Cisco's Netflow management tools.

Cisco Embeds NetQoS for Optimization Metrics
Computerwire - July 25, 2007

Cisco Systems will include technology from network monitoring vendor NetQoS in its optimization/acceleration software, to enable customers to measure their impact on app performance across a WAN link.

A study conducted at the recent NetQoS annual network performance-management technology conference says such recreational use is a problem on more than 60 percent of networks. The survey canvassed the views of more than 150 network engineers, managers and IT directors within large enterprises, strategic integrators and government agencies who attended.

Cisco WAAS devices integrated with NetQoS are set to validate results of WAN optimization deployments
Network World Cisco Subnet - July 25, 2007

Accurate end-to-end application response time measurement for WAN optimization is available in Cisco WAAS devices integrated with NetQoS.

If quantifying performance improvements is a concern, then this joint NetQoS/Cisco solution should be at the top of any IT manager's list of solutions to evaluate.

NetQoS and Cisco Systems hope to fill a visibility gap into the performance gains promised by WAN optimization and application acceleration through their joint efforts to instrument Cisco's Wide Area Application Services appliances.

Cisco and NetQoS are jointly announcing direct integration between Cisco's WAAS and NetQoS Performance Center for end-to-end application performance monitoring.

Cisco this week released key updates to its Wide Area Application Services (WAAS), partnering with NetQoS for better visibility into how applications are performing over the WAN. At Cisco Networkers, the networking giant's annual user conference, Cisco announced a partnership with NetQoS to provide end-to-end visibility and application monitoring of applications traversing the WAN.

WAN optimisation breaks current methods of measuring application performance, claimed NetQoS, as it announced a deal with Cisco to develop software that provides a way around the problem.

IT professionals are to be offered a tool to measure the efficiency of their wide area networks. Cisco and NetQoS are working on embedding measurement software into Cisco's WAN optimisation devices, called Cisco WAAS. The NetQoS software will allow IT professionals to analyse the whole of the link, from client to server. Some monitoring products analyse only part of the link between the WAN optimisation devices, and do not measure server response times, or the effect of the network on the client side of the device.

Security and wireless technologies were the key areas of interest at last week's Interop Las Vegas 2007 conference, despite what the scantily clad women at nearly every vendor booth would have had you believe.

Amid the din of neighboring booth hijinks, a pair of network and application performance management vendors polled 101 attendees, asking them what IT technologies they had in place and what their plans were going forward. In the joint survey, NetQoS and Network Instruments found that half of the respondents already have or plan to implement WAN optimization technology in the next 12 months.

The NetQoS Performance Center gives many advantages to network managers for the large enterprise. This tool makes it possible to answer important questions about network performance by measuring end-to-end response time, traffic flows, and device performance data...This is a comprehensive product with the degree of sophistication and scalability that global enterprises need.

NetQoS...updated its highly scalable NetQoS Performance Center suite to allow for greater integration with third-party applications, more fine-grained data collection and accessibility for more types of users.

ICI {rolling out monitoring software from network specialist NetQoS} has begun a programme to monitor the use of its international data networks in an attempt to avoid the need for a multimillion-pound network upgrade. The move should allow more efficient use of bandwidth and enable targeted upgrades.

NetQoS has put out new versions of its software and opened a UK branch to launch them into Europe
