Expand Management and Visibility

Work smarter, not harder
Lower the total cost of ownership
Automatically see the performance of all your network applications

Knowing that your application acceleration solution is making performance better is one thing, but is that improvement constant? When does it fluctuate? Is it the same for all locations? Is it the same for all applications? How will you know when performance is degrading?
Expand believes that solving the immediate pain is only the beginning. To be strategic to the organization, the solution must work with the existing infrastructure and processes. The solution must be easy to deploy, maintain, and upgrade, allowing one change to be applied to many appliances at once. It must be aware of the business critical applications, as well as all of the other applications on the network. It must easily report on the status of the network in a way that management and non-technical stake holders can appreciate. Anything short of this will be a tactical solution at best, and will need to eventually be replaced with a better solution. Why not start with a solution that works well from the beginning?

Expand's Management & Visibility Solution

Application and Network Visibility

Expand's Application and Network Visibility solution will report on the performance of the applications running your business. It will also automatically report on the applications that are impacting the performance of your business - the unknown and often unmonitored applications. Use of the Accelerator's professional graphs will allow you to visually appreciate what is happening in the network, and easily print them off or save them as a PDF. See throughput, acceleration, and performance of the links in the network and the applications running on them, or use the Accelerator to send NetFlow to a collector. Whether troubleshooting a new issue, or accounting for the performance of the network, Expand solutions provide the visibility to stay informed.

ExpandView

ExpandView is Expand's central management platform, enabling cost effective and low effort management of the Expand solution. When it comes to deployment, ExpandView can automatically discover new Accelerators and load them with the appropriate configuration. As it sets up Accelerators, it will automatically create a network map, allowing quick views of the network status, performance, and alerts. From ExpandView, easily upgrade any Accelerators in the network, as well as keep an inventory of model, code version, and status of all the Accelerators. From one station, control all of the components in the Expand solution. This allows low effort management of the entire Expand solution with less resource, and that is value and efficiency that contribute to the bottom line.
