01 · What it is

ThousandEyes, made clear.

Half of corporate IT now crosses other people's networks: ISPs, backbones, cloud, SaaS. ThousandEyes measures the whole path — agents in the sites, in the cloud and on the endpoints — and shows hop by hop where the problem is born: your LAN, the provider, the peering, or Microsoft. The discussion with the supplier changes tone.

Tests on the critical apps

ERP, M365, VoIP measured from the sites that use them: the baseline that unmasks the degradations.

The providers' SLAs

The carrier challenged with charts: loss and latency documented, not perceived.

Before the cloud

Network readiness measured before the migration: the surprises, beforehand.

In our monitoring

The ThousandEyes alerts inside Yocto Vision: the external visibility in the 24/7 process.

03 · In depth

End-to-end visibility over networks you don't own

ThousandEyes measures the experience from agents: cloud agents (600+ cities), enterprise agents (your sites), endpoint agents (the users' PCs); the tests (HTTP, page load, voice, BGP path trace) photograph every hop between user and app — even across internet, ISPs and SaaS you don't control; the path visualization and BGP views pinpoint WHERE it degrades (your network? the provider? the SaaS?); the alerts and the integrations close the loop with the NOC.

  • Cloud agent — 600+ global measurement points: your SaaS seen from outside
  • Path visualization — every hop lit up: the culprit of the degradation pointed out
  • BGP monitoring — route leaks and hijacks seen in real time
  • Endpoint agent — the PCs' real experience: the complaint becomes data
  • Internet Insights — the ISP and SaaS outages confirmed: 'it's not us', with evidence
  • The providers' SLAs — the metrics to challenge (or choose) the carriers

Where it really pays off.

Sites and remote working

The site seen by the customers, not by the data center.

Disputes with the providers

The third-party diagnosis that ends the arguments.
