IT admins need to visualize the entire network infrastructure effortlessly. Gaining visibility into the network makes it easy to spot patterns, proactively troubleshoot faults, ensure the availability of critical devices 24/7, and more.

Advantages of having network diagram software

  1. Understand device dependencies – Understanding the overall architecture of your network helps you identify and monitor critical devices so you can you optimize network performance. Network visualization displays how each network device affects other devices in your network infrastructure, making the fault resolution process much more efficient.
  2. Aids efficient troubleshooting – A network diagram aids efficient troubleshooting processes in multiple ways. For example, when network issues, such as bandwidth bottlenecks and connectivity problems arise, network visualization helps you resolve these issues by directing the traffic via another route.
