VistaOne specializes in the space between the Internet cloud and the private network, allocating bandwidth according to policy, delivering a consistent user experience and defending against unauthorized activities. We’ve counseled, provisioned and supported hundreds of colleges and universities on deep packet inspection, traffic shaping, HEOA compliance and Internet security. More
Is it time for a packet shaper replacement?
We at VistaOne built our business in 2004 provisioning, supporting and training network administrators on the Packeteer PacketShaper, primarily in education environments.
By 2011, we’d discovered architectural limitations inherent in the product (acquired by Blue Coat) wouldn't permit adequate scaling to meet the demands for bandwidth, users, applications and devices on the growing campus network.
In our search for a replacement, we found several solutions that not only exceeded 10Gbps capacity, but indexed and recognized more applications, permitted end-to-end views of transactions and individual users and employed simpler controls for more sophisticated policy enforcement.
As you prepare for the future, you can depend on VistaOne to deliver the information, evaluations and guidance you need to make the right choice for your environment.

Learn how one university met their need for speed.
The network services group at Virginia Commonwealth University realized responding to bandwidth demands on their network would exceed their PacketShaper’s capacity to monitor applications flowing across their link.
Managers knew they had to increase bandwidth to provide the kind of user experience that attracted top students and faculty. They needed a shaper that could keep pace.
They sought VistaOne’s expertise to help them meet packet shaping requirements immediately and to provide a sensible path for future expansion. Listen to their comments in this series of short videos on their methodology and the choices they ultimately made.

Consider a next-generation
traffic shaper.
Exinda’s packet shaping appliance provides total visibility into users and apps.
It classifies more than 2,000 signatures, identifies encrypted traffic via heuristics and its behavior. It incorporates Active Directory to authenticate individual users regardless of IP address or proxy. And it accelerates traffic with the newest queuing and shaping routines.
The Exinda platform scales from small college campus to internationally distributed university systems with high capacity links.
