Andrisoft Wansight vs Plixer Replicator

Andrisoft Wansight monitors, analyzes, and accounts for network traffic for NOC and IT operations teams. It does not provide DDoS detection or mitigation. Flow Sensors process flow data such as NetFlow, sFlow, jFlow, NetStream, and IPFIX, while Packet Sensors inspect traffic from mirror ports, TAPs, and in-line links. Analytics include graphs by IP, subnet, and IP group, decoder reports, top lists, and 95th-percentile accounting.

The Flow Collector can search, filter, and export flows, and Packet Tracer displays packet captures in a Wireshark-like view. Reports can cover periods from five seconds to ten years and be emailed on a schedule as PDF or Excel. Linux packages run on customer servers, with a web Console for centralized management, scoped customer and department views, role-based profiles, and white-label branding. The Console also supports SAML 2.0, LDAP, Active Directory, RADIUS, REST API, CLI, and scripts. The one-year Sensor license costs $345 a year for one Packet Sensor or one Flow Sensor, monitoring only. A reviewed request can qualify for a free 30-day evaluation license.
