New Model Offers Higher Throughput for End-User Experience Monitoring; New Software Integrates Monitoring With Industry-Leading Application Performance Troubleshooting


BETHESDA, Md., May 27, 2008 (PRIME NEWSWIRE) -- OPNET Technologies, Inc. (Nasdaq:OPNT), a leading provider of solutions for managing networks and applications, today announced a new model of its ACE(tm) live appliances for end-user experience monitoring. The appliance incorporates new hardware to achieve higher throughput and also delivers new one-of-a kind software capabilities.

ACE Live is an end-to-end solution that spans monitoring, measurement, and detection of application performance violations, providing visibility of all transactions and users across the enterprise. ACE Live's on-board real-time analytics break down application response time, identifying which parts of the infrastructure are contributing most to delays.

ACE Analyst can also provide what-if validation of proposed fixes.

"ACE Live Release 6.2, for new and existing ACE Live appliances, enables a seamless work flow when ACE Live is used with ACE Analyst. Problems detected in ACE Live can be automatically captured for further analysis and resolution with ACE Analyst. This announcement fulfills the vision we first shared with our customers at our annual user conference last fall," stated Alain Cohen, OPNET President & CTO. "The breadth and depth of functionality that we now offer in our ACE Live and ACE Analyst solutions is unparalleled in the industry.
