It was a monitoring tool with useful features such as database lining for intelligent alerts, but the coupling of it with BMC BPPM caused issues such as data loss.
This was one of the greatest monitoring tools for a long time. Unfortunately, it's gone down pretty fast. After coupling BMC Patrol with BMC BPPM, many features changed which increased the level of complication as well. Now, there is too much maintenance involved, a lot of data collection issues…

Streamlines quick and effective drill-down into the network stack for better troubleshooting
I would like to see a web-based interface that mimics the ease of doing data traces, similar to something like a Wireshark which is a Windows-based network monitoring tool. Wireshark is fast. I'm an old Windows guy, it's what I know. I think the liability of NetMaster is having to do things through the panels. It's slow to generate traces, and when you're doing a real-time troubleshooting call - when you have to wait 30 seconds for a process to spawn and fire up in order to give data back - 30 seconds is a long time when there's an issue. The user interface is probably the biggest impediment to my success with it.
