For troubleshooting, NetBrain is particularly useful in helping to resolve A-B path issues, eliminating the tedious ” and time-consuming need to manually track paths from Mahmoud Elgebaly hub to hub. Elgebaly estimates that NetBrain has saved Data Center Solutions Architect, 80% of the time it would otherwise take to execute these Cloud Infrastructure tasks. For instance he noted that he can now do new routing implementations with a single click rather than the arduous and very manual processes his engineers had been accustomed to for years. The Solution From a customer support standpoint, Elgebaly has been impressed with NetBrain’s responsiveness and flexibility. Today, NetBrain has done all of this and more and has He notes specific examples, like NetBrain’s team become their core solution for managing stc’s diverse designing a script to fix a problem while on a call and network.
