Engineer at a legal firm with 201-500 employees
Provides a stable solution but would improve by developing an all-in-one-solution
The advice I would give to anyone looking at implementing Netreo into their organization would be to do your market research and evaluate the product, do not just choose it because someone recommends it to you. Overall, from my perspective, I would rate the solution a seven out of ten.

Monitoring has transformed internet visibility and speeds up resolving external service issues
ThousandEyes needs to specify unit consumption forecasting or scaling testing and deeper app analytics. It needs deeper out-of-the-box Layer 7 code or database-level insights. Additionally, it should unify the GUI with broader Cisco platforms and flatten the learning curve, adding better correlation with local laptop system metrics such as endpoint depth, CPU, RAM, or processes. ThousandEyes isn't designed to be a full-blown SNMP monitoring tool for on-premises infrastructure. While it tracks network paths effectively, it doesn't provide deep local device telemetry such as switch port buffer utilization, fan status, or power supply health. For full internal device monitoring, you'll still need to pair it with traditional tools such as SolarWinds or Cisco Catalyst Center.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The technical support team at Netreo is pretty good."
"My favorite feature is that we were able to see everything on a map."
"I would advise others looking into using ThousandEyes to consider it one of the best tools for monitoring their network infrastructure."
"The solution's most valuable feature is the path analyzer, which identifies the node causing the errors."
"We have only had good experiences with support, as they are helpful and responsive, and we are quite happy with the level of attention we get when we have issues."
"The features I like the most about ThousandEyes are the visualizations that let you see how the call flow went and how many hops it took and everything."
"<p>ThousandEyes offers the best features including global internet and cloud visibility from distributed vantage points, application and network performance monitoring, real-time outage detection and incident alerts, end-to-end path visualization for rapid troubleshooting, proactive issue demarcation, and historical data.</p>"
"The most valuable aspect of the solution was the ability to see how the connection quality is between the sites and get an alert if it was turning bad."
"The tool's most valuable feature is its scalability. It is a good tool for network admins."
 

Cons

"The scalability of Netreo is lacking."
"Cisco is the standard for anyone wanting something good, the problem with it is the cost and that means that it's not accessible to many smaller companies."
"I think the pricing, setup cost, and licensing for ThousandEyes are too costly."
"I chose eight out of ten because of the lack of objective performance data."
"It was kind of a beta experience, I would say. It was not fully developed at that time; it looked like an unfinished project with many gaps."
"One improvement I would suggest is regarding the login part, as I have not seen if SSO login integration is available in ThousandEyes."
"Once I fully use the tool 100%, I'm sure I would have something to critique, however, for now, I'm happy with it."
"The guest portal is hard to use."
"They only offer synthetic requests."
