NetQoS Helps Belron US Enhance Network and Application Performance: End-to-End Performance Monitoring and Traffic Analysis Help Belron Monitor Appli
AUSTIN, Texas (Business Wire EON) November 26, 2007 -- The end-to-end performance monitoring of NetQoS SuperAgent combined with the traffic analysis capabilities of NetQoS ReporterAnalyzer help Belron US ensure exceptional application delivery to its various business segments and customer touch points, including two national call centers and several customer-facing Web sites for auto glass quotes, service scheduling, and claims processing; 83 warehouses; and 220 retail stores. In addition, more than 2,200 mobile service technicians depend on the network for accessing applications in the field.
"We saw immediate value when we deployed NetQoS products about two years ago, especially in identifying the source of problems for faster and more accurate troubleshooting, and we continue to rely on the products to give us the data we need for troubleshooting, capacity planning, and maintaining application service levels," said Gary Lewis, manager of data networking and security for Belron US. "SuperAgent and ReporterAnalyzer have been valuable as we deploy technologies such as VoIP over our MPLS network. For example, we can track our current and historical bandwidth usage via ReporterAnalyzer's NetFlow reports, which helps us forecast our future MPLS bandwidth needs accurately."
With NetQoS SuperAgent, Belron US can see how well the network infrastructure is delivering applications to end-users across the organization. SuperAgent continually measures and analyzes response times for all TCP-based transactions and compares the response times against the baselines it calculates for normal application performance. If a response time deviates from normal, SuperAgent pinpoints the delay to the network, server, or application and launches automatic investigations into the problem, enabling rapid troubleshooting. Belron US also depends on SuperAgent to track its internal application service-level agreements.
NetQoS ReporterAnalyzer shows Belron US how application traffic is impacting network performance by reporting on the composition of traffic on every link. ReporterAnalyzer captures a rich set of traffic statistics from Cisco(R) IOS(R) NetFlow routers and switches to identify which applications and users are consuming bandwidth, and when. ReporterAnalyzer reports on 100 percent of flow traffic for the entire network, providing real-time visibility as well as one year of enterprise-wide data for troubleshooting and capacity planning.
NetQoS SuperAgent and NetQoS ReporterAnalyzer are modules of the NetQoS Performance Center, a Web-based management portal that integrates data from NetQoS products in customized views to help enterprises be more effective in capacity planning, troubleshooting, and service-level management.
