WhatsUp Gold Flow Monitor: Network Traffic Analysis

[SolarWindsLive]

SolarWinds Netflow 3.7 is much better and gives you more options to view...

What about the xbox 360 & ps3's and dos it cover NAS drives?

How does it compares against:

- ZenOSS

- Nagios

- Cacti

- BB4

- Zabbix

- Spiceworks

- OpManager

??

Thank you for your question. Of the solutions you have mentioned most are open source and do not have integrated NetFlow monitoring and we do not see them competitively. OpManager does have NetFlow monitoring but is limited in capabilty:

Only 5 reports available

Cannot locate traffic to or from a specific host

Does not:

-classify unknown traffic per port or interface

-save NetFlow data for indefinite period

-show failed connections by protocol and port

-show top host per application

@Gauchoo1234 not very well i think since most of those provide realtime or near realtime traffic analysis and this one does not seem to. ZenOSS or Solar Winds would be my choice.
