Best-in-class network observability.
Network complexity and security issues are growing faster than teams can manage them. Reactive monitoring tools are too slow, lack intelligence across your network ecosystem, and provide data without insight.
The answer is proactive observability, data that becomes intelligence, and proactive remediation that prevents disruptive security and performance events.
Proactive observability and intelligence that drives business performance
The health of your network determines your ability to compete—to build and deliver services and applications for users all over the world.
But complexity is soaring. It takes multiple FTEs to keep critical network infrastructure performant, secure and compliant using basic SNMP-based monitoring and troubleshooting tools.
Network observability and intelligence is different, because it’s proactive instead of reactive. It’s finely tuned to the moment-to-moment signals of risks, errors, inefficiencies, and underperformance, and automatically services proven fixes vetted by a global community of experts.

Deliver more value with observability, root cause auto-triage, and resolution
What’s the difference between network observability and network monitoring? Compared to network observability, network monitoring is limited in two key ways.
First, network monitoring is reactive. Network teams can only resolve issues once they’ve already occurred. Conversely, network observability is proactive—network teams can identify and address potential issues before they wreak havoc on the network.
Second, network monitoring performs simple checks on individual network components to identify deviations from pre-defined thresholds. Network observability uses a wide range of metrics, logs, and configuration information, combined with an extensive knowledge base, to understand the root causes of complex and multifactorial issues.
Auto-triage is an automatic process that gathers diagnostic information, runs analyses, and recommends remediation steps.
It uses observability triggers based on things like performance metrics, security flaws, or configuration drift. Once a trigger condition is met, auto-triage follows a root cause analysis workflow to surface related issues and determine the cause(s). It’s the same workflow your team would perform manually—but it happens automatically at the moment the issue occurs and not hours later.
Once root causes have been determined, go further than other monitoring solutions and get a list of actionable remediation steps to reach resolution. Compiled from the real-world experience of experts, these specific, actionable insights also reduce troubleshooting time.
