NetHealthCheck™
How cost-effective is my network? • Is the architecture appropriate? • Are the network assets being fully
used? • Are there stability and overloading
issues? • Is the upgrade planning process
effectively managing cost and risk?
What Quality of Experience does my network deliver? • Does it meet the requirements of
the services and applications? – If not, what are the impairments?
• What new services could be supported? – What would be the impact on
existing services if they were rolled out?
