How to Solve Network Cases Like a Super Sleuth With Auvik TrafficInsights

Today, 94% of enterprises use a cloud service in some capacity, and by 2020, 83% of entire enterprise workloads will be stored in the cloud. For MSPs, this presents a huge challenge: The network—and a strong internet connection—is now your clients’ lifeline to everything their employees use and need to get things done. 100% uptime is now more than an expectation—it’s mandatory.

Auvik TrafficInsights: The what, who, and where of network traffic

As an MSP, you put a lot of time and effort into earning your clients’ trust. But that trust can be broken with just three short words…“I don’t know.” With Auvik TrafficInsights™, you won’t have to worry. It’s the visibility you need to troubleshoot network issues—fast.

Network Emulation. Bringing real-world conditions to the test environment

The Network Emulation is a relevant technology when making tests related to the behaviour of our platform.

However, when we propose to do these tests, two options arise: simulation and emulation of networks. These are two concepts that are often used interchangeably but are actually very different.

Network Management in a Nutshell for MSPs

Let’s be honest: Network management is a big responsibility. It includes monitoring and controlling a computer network to ensure all of its resources—both hardware and software—are in good shape and are being used productively. And if you’re not a network expert (or don’t have one on your payroll), that probably sounds pretty intimidating. But there’s no time like the present to tackle the topic of network management head on.
