Network planners and operations engineers manage complex and constantly changing networks, and are responsible for the performance and uptime of business-critical services and applications. To face these challenges, commercial and government enterprises, service providers, and defense organizations increasingly rely on automated software solutions to:

  • Accelerate new service and technology deployments using predictive planning
  • Optimize network performance through traffic engineering and right-sizing of capacity
  • Reduce the risk of downtime and misconfigurations via proactive change impact analysis
  • Increase security and operational integrity with scheduled audits to pinpoint problems
  • React to critical network issues using real-time network visualization and troubleshooting

OPNET's Network Engineering, Operations, and Planning portfolio contains a set of complementary solutions, leveraging OPNET's best-in-class analytics applied to an accurate, timely view of your network.
