PingPlotter

Sometimes solving a network problem takes more than rebooting the router. When that's the case, understanding the cause of the problem is essential to finding a solution. Is it your local network, the website you're accessing, or something in between? PingPlotter makes finding and proving the source of network problems easier. It tests the route between your computer and a target website then graphs the results. Visual evidence helps diagnose problems faster. It also helps persuade others to make changes if you find a problem with a network you do not control.

Pros

  • Reliability
  • Monitoring Services
  • Network Connectivity
  • Easy Setup
  • Ease of Use

BlueCat LiveAssurance

BlueCat LiveAssurance (formerly BlueCat Infrastructure Assurance, or BCIA) is a proactive observability and automation solution that helps prevent network disruption before it happens. Think of it as a virtual network expert, on duty 24/7 — but its reach now extends beyond DDI: LiveAssurance protects core network services like BlueCat Integrity (including Address Manager and BDDS components), as well as firewalls and load balancers from a wide range of vendors. LiveAssurance works in three stages.
