Perspective auto-discovers system resources and their metrics, including hardware, operating systems, virtualisation, databases, middleware, applications, and services. With the powerful discovery engine, from installation to having an extensive monitoring system in places takes hours and not days. 

The ability to gain a 'perspective' into the state of how your network, systems and services are performing is invaluable information to network engineers and sysadmins. Utilising protocols such as SNMP, WMI and flow exports such as Netflow detailed visibility into network performance, fault management and device availability across any size network is provided by PacketTrap Perspective.

With user specific 'dashboards' a core presentation method, display of important key performance indicators (KPI's) such as network traffic, latency, CPU load, host services, together with application specific performance from MS Exchange SQL Server etc. is clear and efficient. The inclusion of Flow export analysis for Netflow, JFlow and sFlow® is hugely beneficial to both network and server admins, as the data provided shows just how your bandwidth is being consumed, where sessions are going, with which protocols and by who.
