“We selected Fidelia over other more established products in this space because of the tightly integrated fault and performance management features in a single product, said Chris Malone, VP of Engineering at River City Network Performance Group. “Instead of deploying multiple point products, NetVigil provides us with a ‘total solution’ in a single package,” added Malone.

Since the product also supports web based, unique user logins with secure vision into the customer’s network elements and associated performance, we think our customers will see incredible value based on the breadth and depth of the real time reports,” he added.

NetVigil features an intuitive point-and-click, browser-based user interface that is very easy to use and requires minimal training.
