I’m sure you would have heard about the ManageEngine NetFlow Analyzer and the Riverbed Technology Alliance(RTA). I just wanted to let you know the what, why and of course, the end user benefits of the RTA.

What and why – this RTA?

RTA is a program by riverbed which allows companies with complementary technology to bring additional value to the end users. Riverbed Steelhead appliances are used for WAN optimization and much more. And these Steelhead appliances export NetFlow, this is where ManageEngine NetFlow Analyzer comes useful. NetFlow Analyzer collects and analyzes these NetFlow packets exported from the Steelhead appliances and gives in-depth visibility of your network such as top talkers, top applications, DSCP values and much more.

Over the past four years, the time since NetFlow Analyzer came into being, and with 4000 businesses using this solution, we have seen at least 500 of them using Riverbed Steelhead appliances. And the value the joint solution brings is immense.

The joint solution from Riverbed and ManageEngine NetFlow Analyzer provides in–depth visibility into our WAN traffic and accelerates applications crossing the WAN,” said George Caraker, Manager of IT Operations at Kennedy?Jenks Consultants. “We can now quickly and easily identify the root cause of many network issues, resolve bandwidth utilization problems, and track long term trends. We can also do application monitoring and IP monitoring to ensure quality of business critical applications like MS Exchange and SAP. ManageEngine NetFlow Analyzer is easy to install and use and represents excellent value.
