What AppNeta is
AppNeta is Broadcom software for monitoring network and application performance from the end user’s perspective. It combines active synthetic monitoring with passive packet visibility to help identify issues across networks, applications, and locations. Delivery Monitoring measures network path performance and can run diagnostics to locate where and why a path is performing poorly. Experience Monitoring uses browser and HTTP workflows to simulate user activity, API requests, and web service requests. Usage Monitoring applies deep packet inspection to identify applications using more than 2,000 definitions and can capture packets. AppNeta covers on-premises, cloud, hybrid, and ISP environments, with remote deployment and management of Monitoring Points for distributed locations. The product names SD-WAN and ISP validation as use cases. Data can be integrated with DX NetOps and shown in its portal, while Intelligent Alarms can route filtered high-severity alerts through webhook connectors to systems such as ServiceNow. Broadcom lists SOC 2 and SOC 3 reports; SaaS documentation says client data and backups reside and are processed in the United States. Pricing is on request.
