Nov 6, 2026 By Filip Cerny In WhatsUp Gold

Both WhatsUp Gold NPM and WhatsUp Gold NDR have been updated to shorten the time between discovering an issue and understanding it.

8 Best Network Analyzer Software in 2026

Nov 4, 2026 By Poonam Lalani In Motadata
Does your IT team know which applications, users, or devices are consuming the most network bandwidth? A video call freezes, file transfers slow down, or a network link becomes congested. Without traffic analysis, finding the source of the problem can take hours. Network analyzer software helps your IT team: However, tools differ in how they collect traffic data.

Network Inventory Management: How to Track Every Device and Config

Nov 3, 2026 By Poonam Lalani In Motadata
How many devices are on your network right now? The usual answer is “check the spreadsheet”, and nobody is quite sure which copy is current. That's awkward during an outage and worse during an audit, or on the day a vendor advisory asks which switches run a vulnerable firmware build. Network inventory management retires that spreadsheet. In its place, you get a record that changes when the devices do, with hardware, addresses, VLANs and every router and switch config in one place.

Nov 2, 2026 By Ramya Shah In Motadata
Think about Outlook, Salesforce or the shared drive your staff open each morning, and at least one of them probably runs in AWS, Azure or Google Cloud.

The network diagram examples below sit between those piles, 8 diagrams IT teams actually use, sorted into physical, logical, and cloud or WAN.

How to Prove Your ISP Is the Problem (With Data)

Nov 2, 2026 By Alyssa Lamberti In Obkio
You call your ISP because calls keep dropping and the Internet crawls every afternoon. Support asks you to restart the modem. Then they test the line from their side, see nothing wrong, and tell you everything looks fine on their end. By the time a technician shows up, the problem is gone, and the ticket gets closed. The issue usually isn't that your ISP doesn't care. First-line support is trained to rule out the customer's network first, and most complaints arrive with nothing they can check.
