Orion Network Performance Monitor (NPM) is built on an open architecture to provide maximum flexibility, to facilitate integration between technologies, and to leverage industry-standard best practices.

Industry-standard MIBs and protocols are utilized to monitor the network, eliminating the need for remote probes or agents.


"We tried CiscoWorks and it required too much management and configuration to be effective in our environment. I downloaded a trial of Orion and knew immediately it was what we had been looking for."
