Long the gold standard, eHealth Suite is still one of the best performance management solutions on the market. The number of data sources from which eHealth Suite can draw is huge: network devices, servers, applications, transactions, probes and circuits. The biggest difference between eHealth Suite and ProactiveNet is not the price--though eHealth Suite is more expensive in our pricing scenario--but the extensive implementation and administration eHealth Suite entails. For example, eHealth's root-cause tools require thresholds be set manually, based on the user's data transmissions. Also, we had to apply our network-topology knowledge to determine what devices in the network path could be causing a network slowdown.
