Network Performance Monitoring
Comparison of Network Performance Monitoring features of Product A and Product B
Azure Network Watcher is well-suited for cloud environment, it's necessary for the network troubleshooting. It is especially useful in where you have done integration with azure virtual wan and custom routes (udr) to control traffic in a hub & spoke network with Azure firewall. When the traffic is manipulated with udr, the troubleshooting at the routing level becomes important in some cases.
It’s best for troubleshooting issues that require a packet level analysis. By having source/destination you can have a view into how the packets are traversing the network. If alerts/baselines are set up it can help identify something out of the norm. Very useful for VoIP applications as well. Would not recommend for small scale environments.
The graphical interface has to be the key benefit of NetScout. I am more of a packet analyzer but the interface gives the upper levels easier view into the network.
The breakdown of sites is useful.
The ability of the break the traffic down and go into the packet analyzer straight from the graphical interface. Saves a lot of time writing filters with just simple clicks.
It provides a lot of useful information, but it's not always easy/intuitive to find it. It really needs to get a fully functional API integrated to support automation and integration with other monitoring and analytics tools to enable faster decision making. On the other hand, it gathers a lot of useful information from complex networks that are useful for capacity management and faster incident isolation and resolution.
Azure Network watcher provides various feature that stacks up against other products such as monitoring which include network monitoring and connection monitoring etc. Diagnostic feature which includes connection troubleshoot, VPN troubleshoot etc. Logging feature which includes network traffic analysis and helps in understanding network traffic more efficiently. All these features in azure network watcher make it worth.
NETSCOUT nGeniusONE is the best solution which we have encountered so far. The best part about this is that it can be integrated with various third party tool for more visibility and behavior analysis.

This is an incredible network performance monitoring tool
