Most enterprises face a common challenge of “bandwidth speed being low or critical internet based business applications not working”. Little is the realization that file-sharing, internet gaming, internet videos, and such unproductive internet traffic eat-up 40-50% of enterprise ILL/ broadband connection, affecting the performance of key critical IT applications like video conferencing, latency sensitive traffic, office email and also the experience of productive internet office usage. Expensive tools have limited functionality and mostly fail to contain the file-sharing applications.
Smart ILL, enables you to optimize and manage your bandwidth by blocking unproductive traffic and prioritizing mission critical applications. As a special benefit, Nextra Customers on Basic ILL, can upgrade to Smart ILL.
In an enterprise, different applications compete for the same limited bandwidth resource, in which low-importance bandwidth-hungry traffic consume the maximum bandwidth, leaving the enterprise unsatisfied with the Internet experience. The more it increases the bandwidth, more the bad traffic increases. It is found that unproductive traffic – file-sharing torrents, internet gaming, internet videos, live internet streaming content (live news, live cricket), social networking, personal stock-trading, etc – consumes 40-50% of the enterprise’s total bandwidth. Nextra Smart ILL enables you to block or limit access to unproductive traffic (based on protocol, URL, IP Address) and thus, effectively increases the bandwidth for productive work by 60% – 100%.
Even without blocking, Nextra Smart ILL can be used for prioritizing business critical and latency sensitive applications over general applications.
Nextra Smart ILL gives you graphical report* of the network usage by protocol, application, URL etc, and allows us to manage, prioritize & optimize the bandwidth usage.
