Obkio Erfahrungen

An Accurate, Easy-to-Use, Easy-to-Deploy Network Performance Tool

Kommentare: We provide Hosted VoIP Services to our customers, so having the ability to quickly and easily determine internet service performance is crucial, and no company that we have found offers the flexibility, accuracy and ease-of-use of Obkio.

Vorteile:

Accurate internet performance measurement and monitoring Ease of use Ease of deployment Support for Raspberry Pi, Windows and Linux Detailed breakdown of performance issues using weighted scoring

Nachteile:

The ability to generate detailed historical reports is missing, but I believe they are working on that. We would like to be able to have more options for exporting the current monitoring view with the titles and labels.

Obkio review

Vorteile:

Obkio allows me to see what is hapenning on my network on real time.

Nachteile:

The dashboard should autorefresh to the last hours (actually I have to do it manually) - just a very tiny issue

Exceeds our expectations

Kommentare: We started looking for a benchmarking tool for our SDWAN projects, by the time we implemented Obkio we were already using it for 3 projects and Operations. The ease of use and data-rich interface helps our team resolve complex performance issues in no time.

Vorteile:

Obkio is so user friendly and has so much power in simple views that has not only met our expectations and needs but is giving our organization added value in our Operations and Project teams.

Nachteile:

The nice part about Obkio cons is that you can discuss these with the Obkio team and they will build those features for you.

Obkio Network Monitoring

Kommentare: We have used Obkio in a variety of situations, both for managed service customers as well as network assessment projects. Non technical users at sites are able to quickly install the physical sensors in their offices allowing rapid assessment of WAN performance. With a few sensors we were able to diagnose a complex VPN based WAN servicing 2000 independent offices. We also were able to assess issues in a traditional MPLS architecture and provide actionable measurements to the service provider. Throughout the deployment and analysis process we received excellent support from the Obkio team.

Vorteile:

Obkio was very easy to deploy and use, provides detailed network performance visibility without needing access to network equipment.

Nachteile:

There are very few things I don't like about Obkio, however since I need to fill in this field The only issue we've had is with cost, especially for a network with a larger number of sites. The growing feature set is improving the value proposition over time and it's easy to adjust the size of your deployment monthly based on your needs at a specific time.

An easy to deploy monitoring tool

Kommentare: We needed a tool to optimize our network and to monitor critical services. Obkio does this perfectly.

Vorteile:

Accurate measurement for monitoring and troubleshooting. Easy to setup and use.

Needs more reporting and exporting facilities.

Awesome monitoring solution

Vorteile:

Great application, great team, works well for what we needed and we love it.

Nachteile:

Great insights into network performance

Kommentare: The team there is highly responsive to feature requests and is a pleasure to work with.

Vorteile:

We've been using the Obkio platform internally, as well as deployed to customers, for just about 2 years now. What's kept us on the platform despite many alternatives being pitched to us is the simplicity in setup, combined with the excellent reports generated. It's quite easy to pre-stage devices before they go onsite so you start getting alerts and data within minutes of it coming online. There's also an excellent API available if you want to pull some statistics of your own, and the developers are fantastic to work with.

Nachteile:

The licensing for extra administrators can be a little confusing at first, when we run into this issue we usually make single read only account that is shared amongst people interested in looking at the reports.

Perfect tool for internet performance issue between sites

Vorteile:

Realtime monitoring and dashboard are perfect to diagnostic Internet performance issue between remote sites.

Nachteile:

Nothing to say here. Most of desired features are well designed and integrated.
