Observer Product Comparison Matrix

Observer® has a unique distributed architecture, Observer ensures scalability, affordability and reliability across the entire network. The Observer family of products combines a comprehensive management and analysis console with high-performance Probes to provide integrated monitoring and management for the entire network (LAN, 802.11a/b/g, gigabit, WAN).

Observer is available as software or appliances. Observer has two components: the console, which displays data, and the probe, which is used for data collection and processing. Since the console and the probe are derived from the same code, they work together as a seamless, integrated solution. This unique architecture ensures the entire user experience and product functionality are identical regardless of topology or location. Updates and enhancements made to Observer are made across the entire product platform.
