What is NetVizura NetFlow Analyzer?
NetFlow Analyzer equips network administrators with a straightforward method to analyze bandwidth usage, identify trends, monitor applications, and detect traffic irregularities. It offers visual representations of traffic across network devices, interfaces, subnets, traffic segments, and end users, utilizing protocols like Cisco® NetFlow (IPFIX, NSEL, and sFlow) along with other similar netflow-compatible protocols. This tool aids network administrators in overseeing bandwidth, investigating network traffic, and generating detailed reports.
By leveraging this technology, organizations can enhance their networks and applications, strategize for future network growth, minimize the time allocated to troubleshooting and diagnostics, and bolster their security measures.
Furthermore, NetVizura provides the capability for users to customize the traffic they wish to monitor, focusing on specific IP subnets and traffic characteristics, including the protocols and services in use. This allows for the monitoring of targeted traffic within different segments of the network, such as individual remote locations, departmental units, or clusters of regional offices, effectively tailoring oversight to meet the organization's needs. This targeted approach ensures comprehensive network management and efficiency.

NetCrunch supports 680+ monitoring targets and provides 270+ ready-to-use Monitoring Packs for devices, applications, and operating systems. Policy-based monitoring automatically applies monitoring settings, Monitoring Packs, thresholds, and alerts to matching devices and systems. Licensing is based on monitored nodes and network interfaces rather than individual sensors, checks, or metrics.
Real-time dashboards and automatic Layer 2 and routing topology maps provide visibility into network status and performance. NetCrunch supports event correlation, dependency-aware alert suppression, predictive thresholds, escalation, and 40+ automated response actions, including script execution, notifications, webhooks, and integrations with external IT and collaboration tools.
NetCrunch also provides hardware and software inventory, network device configuration backup and change tracking, bandwidth monitoring, and network traffic analysis using NetFlow, sFlow, IPFIX, and other flow technologies. Distributed Monitoring Probes extend monitoring to remote and isolated locations, while REST APIs support integration and automation with external systems.
NetCrunch is self-hosted on Windows Server and can monitor on-premises, air-gapped, cloud, and hybrid IT environments.
Pricing Information
$1600 for NetCrunch 50 nodes
NetCrunch licensing is based on the number of monitored nodes and network interfaces. Each node license includes one monitored interface, and additional interface licenses can be added when more network interfaces need to be monitored. Licensing is not based on individual sensors, checks, or metrics.
