### [LiveWire](https://www.g2.com/products/bluecat-livewire/reviews)

BlueCat LiveWire is a network visibility and packet capture solution designed to provide comprehensive insights into the intricacies of hybrid networks. As organizations navigate the complexities of digital transformation—such as migrating workloads to the cloud, virtualizing data centers, and consolidating infrastructure—LiveWire equips IT teams with the necessary visibility and analytics to manage network performance, reliability, and security effectively. This solution captures and analyzes network traffic across physical, virtual, and cloud environments, offering real-time visibility into both east-west and north-south traffic flows. By addressing the blind spots that often arise from virtualization and cloud adoption, LiveWire transforms raw packet data into actionable insights that enhance performance monitoring. When integrated with BlueCat LiveNX, it presents IT and NetOps teams with a unified view for monitoring network performance, troubleshooting issues, and planning for capacity needs. LiveWire Virtual extends its capabilities into VMware ESXi and Red Hat KVM environments, converting packet data into flow records that LiveNX can visualize and analyze. This ensures that users experience the same level of deep visibility and application performance monitoring in virtual environments as they do in physical networks. In the event of a network issue, LiveWire provides one-click access to full packet captures, enabling teams to quickly identify root causes and minimize mean time to resolution. Designed for flexibility, LiveWire offers configurations tailored for small, medium, and large deployments, making it suitable for various environments from branch offices to enterprise-scale data centers. Its seamless integration with virtual network components—such as vSwitch, virtual taps (vTap), virtual packet brokers (vPB), and overlay networks—facilitates easy deployment in any virtualized setting. In addition to monitoring, LiveWire enhances network security and incident response capabilities. It continuously records packet data, supplying the forensic evidence necessary to trace intrusions, validate alerts, and assess the scope of potential threats. This level of visibility empowers security and network teams to respond swiftly, validate events, and ensure compliance with regulatory standards. By combining the functionalities of BlueCat LiveWire and LiveNX, organizations gain access to a unique packet-to-flow visibility platform that integrates network performance and security analytics across physical, virtual, and cloud infrastructures. This comprehensive solution aids enterprises in streamlining operations, accelerating their digital transformation journey, and maintaining consistent performance from the core of their networks to the cloud. With BlueCat LiveWire, organizations can achieve the complete network visibility, performance analytics, and packet intelligence essential for ensuring the smooth operation of business-critical applications across all environments.

### [Corelight](https://www.g2.com/products/corelight/reviews)

Corelight's Open Network Detection and Response (NDR) Platform improves network detection coverage, accelerates incident response, and reduces operational costs by consolidating NDR, intrusion detection (IDS), and PCAP functionality in a single solution and by providing security analysts with machine learning-assisted investigations and one-click-pivots from prioritized alerts to the evidence needed to investigate and remediate them. Network Detection and Response platforms monitor and analyze network traffic, delivering telemetry into existing SIEM, XDR, or SaaS-based solutions. Corelight’s platform is unique because our detections and visibility engineering are community driven—with continuous content creation from Zeek®, Suricata IDS, and other Intel communities. And our integration with CrowdStrike XDR enables cross platform (EDR+NDR) analytics. This provides you with the most complete network visibility, powerful analytics, and threat hunting capabilities, and accelerates investigation across your entire kill chain. Corelight also delivers a comprehensive suite of network security analytics that help organizations identify more than 75 adversarial TTPs across the MITRE ATT&CK® spectrum including Exfiltration, Command and Control (C2), and Lateral Movement. These detections reveal known and unknown threats via hundreds of unique insights and alerts across machine learning, behavioral analysis, and signature-based approaches.

### [TotalView](https://www.g2.com/products/pathsolutions-totalview/reviews)

TotalView is a Network Monitoring & Management system that uses automation to monitor every switch, router, server, firewall, and AP in the environment, as well as deep visibility into every interface including performance, 19 different error counters, QoS, STP, PoE, and connectedness. This information is analyzed by the included heuristics engine to produce plain-English diagnostics to problems detected on the network. This makes root-cause troubleshooting of problems easy because you know everything your network equipment knows about faults, misconfigurations, and resource limitations. Setup and autoconfiguration is far faster than other solutions, typically 12 minutes for most environments. Features include license-unlimited server/service/CPU/RAM monitoring, VoIP/UC troubleshooting, Network diagramming, path mapping, port mapping, IPAM, NetFlow, Call Simulation, Work-from-home troubleshooting, Security Operations Monitoring, Security SOAR event response, MIB Browser, and Network Automation.

Network monitoring software tracks, analyzes, and manages the performance, availability, and security of IT networks. This is managed across on-premises, cloud, and hybrid environments. Such tools provide real-time visibility into network infrastructure, enabling IT teams, managed service providers (MSP), and DevOps teams to detect failures, optimize performance, and enhance security.

 

Network monitoring solutions use simple network management protocol (SNMP), syslog monitoring, API-based tracking, and agent-based monitoring to collect performance data from routers, switches, firewalls, internet of things (IoT) devices, and cloud-based networks. Some tools also include flow-based traffic analysis (NetFlow, sFlow, jFlow, IPFIX), Deep Packet Inspection (DPI), and encrypted traffic analysis to identify bottlenecks and security threats.

 

Modern network monitoring tools support hybrid and cloud-based environments, including [SD-WAN solutions](https://www.g2.com/categories/sd-wan), [business virtual private network (VPN) software](https://www.g2.com/categories/business-vpn), cloud interconnects, [container networking software](https://www.g2.com/categories/container-networking), and service meshes (AWS, Azure, GCP).

 

Many integrate with IT infrastructure [monitoring software](https://www.g2.com/categories/monitoring), [application performance monitoring (APM) software](https://www.g2.com/categories/application-performance-monitoring-apm), and [network security software](https://www.g2.com/categories/network-security) for a unified observability approach. AI-driven analytics and automation enhance anomaly detection, root cause analysis, and predictive performance optimization, reducing downtime and improving network reliability. Advanced solutions also offer [zero trust software](https://www.g2.com/categories/zero-trust) analytics, DDoS detection, and IDS/IPS integration for network security monitoring.

 

To qualify for inclusion in the Network Monitoring category, a product must:

 
- Monitor network devices in real time, including routers, switches, firewalls, cloud networks, and IoT
- Provide automated alerts and notifications for performance issues and security risks
- Analyze network traffic and performance using SNMP, flow-based monitoring, DPI, or encrypted traffic analysis 
- Monitor hybrid and cloud-based environments, including SD-WAN, VPNs, and multi-cloud networking
- Support AI-driven analytics and automation for network optimization and security threat detection
- Offer auto-discovery, topology mapping, historical analytics, and compliance monitoring for visibility and troubleshooting
