In an Independent Lab Validation, the ExtraHop Platform Received Top Marks for Ease of Deployment, Auto-Discovery, Breadth and Depth, Extensibility, and Price-to-Performance Ratio
LAS VEGAS, NV--(Marketwired - May 4, 2016) - INTEROP -- ExtraHop, the global leader in real-time wire data analytics for IT and business intelligence, today announced the results of comprehensive lab testing and review of its platform conducted by the independent analyst firm Enterprise Strategy Group (ESG). Read a complimentary copy of the report: "The ExtraHop Stream Analytics Platform: Wire Data for the Real-Time Enterprise."
"Credible technical reviews are becoming vanishingly rare, particularly in the enterprise IT market, making it exceedingly difficult for buyers to assess vendor claims and make true apples-to-apples comparisons," said ExtraHop CEO Jesse Rothstein. "This lab report from ESG puts our cards on the table, providing independent, clear, and unambiguous validation of our platform and the value it delivers to customers. We challenge other IT Operations Analytics, Network Performance Monitoring, and Application Performance Monitoring vendors to adopt a similarly transparent approach."
ESG Lab tested the capabilities and claims of the ExtraHop platform across five key areas that IT organizations frequently use to determine the fit and value of a next-generation monitoring platform which covered:
"The ExtraHop platform's differentiating stream processing architecture delivers greater functionality and higher levels of performance than legacy network, application, or infrastructure monitoring tools," reported Mike Leone, Senior Lab Analyst for ESG. "When compared to traditional network monitoring tools, ExtraHop delivers significantly more functionality -- from simple deployment to a comprehensive set of out-of-the-box protocols and metrics analysis -- for a fraction of the cost, saving approximately 2.5x compared to the closest alternatives."
The ESG Lab report highlighted seven key findings in which the ExtraHop stream analytics platform stands apart from the competition:
