Product
Overview - the VSS Advantage
The VSS product family
offers comprehensive, efficiently manageable and user friendly
monitoring solutions that are vastly more cost effective to end users.
The primary competitive advantage of the distributed solutions enables
pervasive information visibility, immediate response times, and up to
80% in cost savings over alternative deployments.
Both
the breadth and unique features of the VSS product portfolio offer
unparalleled compatibility and flexibility across a wide spectrum of
diverse networks. The distributed network monitoring solutions allow
end users to identify and resolve problems as they emerge –
before network disruption - translating into increased bandwidth and
less downtime.
The proprietary distributed taps
change the architecture of networking monitoring, delivering
streamlined solutions that leverage monitoring tools and enable
complete and efficient visibility of network links from a remote,
centralized location.
VSS product performance
criteria significantly reduces monitoring costs, allowing companies to
achieve greater economy of scale and efficiency over traditional
software driven applications that require multiple tools and expensive
licensing and maintenance fees. The product portfolio is therefore able
to enhance distributed solutions and improve the competitive
performance of a network.
