InfoVista’s Vista360 Wins Its 4th Award

Self-service Network and Application Performance Dashboard Named TMCnet’s 2011 Communications Solutions Product of the Year Award

PARIS, France and HERNDON, Virginia—September 11, 2012—InfoVista, a global leader of proactive service performance assurance solutions, today announced that Vista360, the company’s self-service network and application performance dashboard, has been awarded TMCnet’s 2011 Communications Solutions Product of the Year Award.

Today’s network and communications environments generate huge amounts of data, much of it centered on performance and quality. However, getting at this performance-related information when it is needed is a constant challenge for stakeholders in charge of ensuring end users receive the right quality of experience from their applications and IT services.

Whether from the network operations center (NOC), the engineering organization or the service delivery team, they need to combine data from diverse management toolsets and screens of events to piece together what is really happening and act on these results at the right time.

Vista360 is a flexible, self-service network and application performance dashboard. It enables decision-makers to access the performance data they want, how and when they want it, in order to take effective and decisive action. A powerful Web 2.0 application, Vista360 allows real-time service quality visualization with a simplified and operational performance management of application-aware network and IT services.
