Imagine driving a car at night without headlights. It's risky, right? Without them, you can't see where you're going, and you might crash. Well, the same goes for visibility in enterprise networks. If you can't see how they're performing, you might run into problems with important apps, slow Internet, and unhappy customers. That's why having the right tools to see what's happening on your network is crucial. It's like turning on those headlights to make sure you're going in the right direction.

With many SASE vendors prioritizing security over performance, businesses are left with a gap in their network management strategies. Before implementations, SASE vendors make promises about the performance of their SASE services, but, how can customers ensure they’re getting what they paid for? And how can they avoid slow or sluggish networks leading to frustrated users, decreased productivity, and even financial losses?

As more and more companies seek to enhance their network infrastructure, the adoption of SD-WAN solutions has become increasingly common. These solutions offer promising benefits, from optimizing application performance to reducing costs associated with traditional WAN architectures. However, while many SD-WAN vendors tout monitoring capabilities, they often fall short of providing comprehensive network visibility and proactive monitoring. So, what's the missing link?

So, you've invested in a high-bandwidth Internet line for your business, complete with a service level agreement (SLA) ensuring consistent uptime. Sounds foolproof, right? Not quite. Despite meeting the SLA requirements for uptime, you might encounter performance issues severe enough to disrupt your cloud-based applications. Sure, technically, the connection is still up, but it's practically unusable. The frustrating part?

Had enough of wading through alternative listings that leave you scratching your head? We feel your frustration! It's downright exasperating when recommendations are based solely on review counts, random algorithms, or pay-per-click arrangements. We've all seen it: a behemoth software editor inexplicably crowned as the top alternative to a network performance monitoring software, even though they have absolutely no shared features. It just doesn't add up!

Network Congestion, similar to road congestion, occurs when your network cannot adequately handle the traffic flowing through it. While network congestion is usually temporary, it can cause annoying network problems that can affect performance and can be a sign of a larger issue in your network. That's why you need an end-to-end monitoring tool to help you proactively detect network congestion. Obkio Network Monitoring continuously monitors end-to-end network performance from your local network (LAN, VPN), as well as third-party networks (WAN, ISP, and Internet Peering).

Latency is one of the core network metrics that you should be measuring when monitoring your network performance. Latency refers to the round-trip measure of time it takes for data to reach its destination across a network. Consistent delays or odd spikes in time when measuring latency are signs of major performance issues in your network. The most accurate way to measure Latency is by using a Network Monitoring Software, like Obkio.
