Show More ##### ## Management (3) Performance Baseline Sets a standard performance baseline by which to compare live network activity. Data Visualization Charts or graphs live and historical network performance for quick status checking and analysis. Path Analysis Gives insights into which specific network paths are performing suboptimally. Show More ##### ## Automation (4) Metadata Management Indexes metadata descriptions for easier searching and enhanced insights Artificial Intelligence & Machine Learning Facilitates Artificial Intelligence (AI) or Machine Learning (ML) to enable data ingestion, performance suggestions, and traffic analysis. Response Automation Reduces time spent remedying issues manually. Resolves common network security incidents quickly. Continuous Analysis Constantly monitors traffic and activity. Detects anomalies in functionality, user accessibility, traffic flows, and tampering. Show More ##### ## Incident Management (3) Incident Logs Information on each incident is stored in databases for user reference and analytics. Incident Alerts Gives alerts when incidents arise. Some responses may be automated, but users will still be informed. Incident Reporting Produces reports detailing trends and vulnerabilities related to their network and infrastructure. Show More ##### ## Monitoring - Network Monitoring (3) 360-Degree Network Visibility Offers full observability of all network environments, including on-premises, cloud, SD-WAN, WLAN, and edge computing. Automated Network Discovery Automatically detects and maps all network devices and architectures, reducing manual effort and improving visibility. Real-Time Monitoring Provides true real-time network monitoring to detect and resolve issues instantly, rather than relying on near-time data. Show More ##### ## Analytics - Network Monitoring (2) Predictive Performance Analytics Uses AI-driven analysis of historical and real-time data to forecast network issues before they impact performance. Packet & Flow Analysis Combines packet and flow analysis techniques to provide a comprehensive view of network traffic and performance. Show More ##### ## Security - Network Monitoring (3) Encrypted Data Transmission Ensures all monitored network data is securely encrypted both in transit and at rest. Zero Trust and Identity Management Supports integration with Zero Trust frameworks and identity management solutions to enhance network security. Integrated Network Security Unifies network performance monitoring with security intelligence to identify and mitigate threats in real-time. Show More ##### ## Network Performance - Network Monitoring (2) Dynamic Network Optimization Continuously analyzes and adjusts network configurations to optimize performance and reliability. Automated Tasks Routing Automates routine network monitoring tasks, reducing operational overhead and human error. Show More ##### ## AI Automation - Network Monitoring (3) Machine Learning-Based Anomaly Detection Uses machine learning to identify network anomalies, preventing security and performance issues before they escalate. Self-Healing Networks Automates corrective actions for common network issues, reducing downtime and manual intervention. Predictive Network Maintenance Leverages AI to anticipate hardware failures, capacity issues, and performance bottlenecks before they occur. Show More ##### ## Agentic AI - Network Monitoring (7) Autonomous Task Execution Capability to perform complex tasks without constant human input Multi-step Planning Ability to break down and plan multi-step processes Cross-system Integration Works across multiple software systems or databases Adaptive Learning Improves performance based on feedback and experience Natural Language Interaction Engages in human-like conversation for task delegation Proactive Assistance Anticipates needs and offers suggestions without prompting Decision Making Makes informed choices based on available data and objectives Show More [ ![ScreenConnect](https://images.g2crowd.com/uploads/product/hd_favicon/0bca4a557cfe6bea5f4fb24eaee6b1d8/screenconnect.svg "ScreenConnect") Sponsored ScreenConnect 4.7/5 (503) Visit Website ](javascript:void(0)) ## Top-Rated Alternatives [ ![Datadog](https://images.g2crowd.com/uploads/product/hd_favicon/1498834114/datadog.svg "Datadog") Datadog 4.4/5 (708) ](https://www.g2.com/products/datadog/reviews) [ ![LogicMonitor](https://images.g2crowd.com/uploads/product/hd_favicon/858e8aec2bd0531fc134f88e4d5f87a9/logicmonitor.svg "LogicMonitor") LogicMonitor 4.5/5 (586) ](https://www.g2.com/products/logicmonitor/reviews) [ ![Dynatrace](https://images.g2crowd.com/uploads/product/hd_favicon/1512659484/dynatrace.svg "Dynatrace") Dynatrace 4.5/5 (1,231) ](https://www.g2.com/products/dynatrace/reviews) [ View All Alternatives ](https://www.g2.com/products/kentik/competitors/alternatives) Kentik Comparisons ![Product Avatar Image](https://images.g2crowd.com/uploads/product/image/small_square/small_square_e302b9439c6c7eaa44ae03a965783362/logicmonitor.png "Product Avatar Image") LogicMonitor 4.5/5 (643) [ Compare Now ](https://www.g2.com/compare/kentik-vs-logicmonitor) ![Product Avatar Image](https://images.g2crowd.com/uploads/product/image/small_square/small_square_393746d0cdc8904473bde59b5858158e/datadog.png "Product Avatar Image") Datadog 4.4/5 (722) [ Compare Now ](https://www.g2.com/compare/datadog-vs-kentik) ![Product Avatar Image](https://images.g2crowd.com/uploads/product/image/small_square/small_square_0886f7e7530573d368a4c5ec64e89366/thousandeyes.png "Product Avatar Image") ThousandEyes 4.5/5 (80) [ Compare Now ](https://www.g2.com/compare/kentik-vs-thousandeyes) ##### Categories on G2 [ Network Monitoring ](https://www.g2.com/categories/network-monitoring)[ Network Traffic Analysis (NTA) ](https://www.g2.com/categories/network-traffic-analysis-nta) ##### Explore More [ Best inbound call tracking software for small businesses ](https://www.g2.com/discussions/best-inbound-call-tracking-software-for-small-businesses-any-recommendations)[ What's the top-rated webinar platform ](https://www.g2.com/discussions/what-s-the-top-rated-webinar-platform)[ User-friendly accounting software with payroll capabilities ](https://www.g2.com/discussions/what-s-the-most-user-friendly-accounting-software-with-payroll-capabilities) [ Which feature management platforms work best for teams managing thousands of flags across multiple environments? ](https://www.g2.com/discussions/which-feature-management-platforms-work-best-for-teams-managing-thousands-of-flags-across-multiple-environments)[ Which fleet management software integrates well with GPS ](https://www.g2.com/discussions/which-fleet-management-software-integrates-well-with-gps)[ Pros and Cons Details ](https://www.g2.com/products/kentik/reviews?qs=pros-and-cons) Show More [ Best inbound call tracking software for small businesses ](https://www.g2.com/discussions/best-inbound-call-tracking-software-for-small-businesses-any-recommendations)[ What's the top-rated webinar platform ](https://www.g2.com/discussions/what-s-the-top-rated-webinar-platform)[ User-friendly accounting software with payroll capabilities ](https://www.g2.com/discussions/what-s-the-most-user-friendly-accounting-software-with-payroll-capabilities) [ Which feature management platforms work best for teams managing thousands of flags across multiple environments? ](https://www.g2.com/discussions/which-feature-management-platforms-work-best-for-teams-managing-thousands-of-flags-across-multiple-environments)[ Which fleet management software integrates well with GPS ](https://www.g2.com/discussions/which-fleet-management-software-integrates-well-with-gps)[ Pros and Cons Details ](https://www.g2.com/products/kentik/reviews?qs=pros-and-cons)
