Net Optics Reseller Program Enables Partners to Offer their Customers Ability to Passively Tap into their Network, Giving 100% Visibility Without Ever Introducing a Point of Failure.
SANTA CLARA, Calif., January 28, 2009 - Net Optics, Inc., a leading provider of network access devices, today announced that the company's network access products will be offered by several new leading solution partners globally through the Net Optics Reseller Program. The Net Optics Reseller Program will open up new market opportunities for both Net Optics and its expanded roster of hundreds of partners. Net Optics products help network IT and security professionals gain 24/7 non-intrusive access for 100% monitoring visibility. Net Optics' Reseller partners can offer their customers the ability to intelligently monitor and secure their networks without interruption, using any industry-standard monitoring or security tool they choose.
Network and security IT professionals, driven to monitor more links in greater detail throughout the network, are realizing that monitoring tools must be accessible and easy to deploy in order to keep up with today's new business challenges. A more efficient solution is needed to support today's performance monitoring and security requirements, along with managing the efficiency and performance of the tools throughout the network.
Net Optics products provide 100% passive access and traffic visibility to network links, enabling enterprises to "Tap" into their networks no matter what type of traffic. Net Optics products have become best-practice access solutions for all major security and application performance-monitoring tools. Net Optics products ensure access to all network data, all of the time, helping partners and customers achieve their goal of a healthy, secure and highly efficient network.
"Partnering with Net Optics allows Absolute Analysis to meet the growing demand from our customers for more, and better testing," said Dennis Murphy, CEO of Absolute Analysis. "There is great synergy between our products and Net Optics' products, which allow our customers to leverage their investment in Absolute Analysis' high speed serial test and analysis solutions."
Net Optics Network Access Products
As networks evolve in terms of interfaces, protocols, and loads, Net Optics products ensure that 100% of the traffic on a link is copied to monitoring tools. This Taps method improves the likelihood that all required information, regardless of content type, and including layer 1 and 2 errors, are retained for service level agreement measurement and troubleshooting purposes. The in-line characteristics of Taps also alleviate configuration and contention issues sometimes associated with Span ports.
Net Optics products are installed between network devices to intelligently copy the traffic to monitoring tools and appliances in order to optimize and protect applications, data, and business processes. Taps have become the preferred means for sharing network performance and security monitoring for government agencies, and enterprises of all sizes.
According to Bob Shaw, CEO, Net Optics, "Finding the right network monitoring solution to ensure network performance and security continues to be top of mind for enterprises. Together with our partners, we are able to bring world-class network monitoring solutions to customers. Net Optics' Reseller program provides personalized support and expertise which is critical to ensuring customer satisfaction."
"Resource Communications has focused on helping our customers get a "catbird view" of the appropriate data, off of their networks, and into all of the various analysis and collector tools that their Operations and Security groups use to keep the Network running smooth," said Rich Vogt, CEO, Resource Communications. "Net Optics has been a key partner for us in fulfilling this mission. Given the breadth and depth of their product offerings, Net Optics has become the glue that helps us provide a complete access solution that fits all of the wide variety of customer data access requirements."
