Panopta

Panopta built a SaaS platform for monitoring and troubleshooting hybrid IT infrastructure. Fortinet bought the business and now sells the product as FortiMonitor, a digital experience monitoring (DEM) service that shows how applications perform for users wherever they sit and wherever the application runs. The old Panopta address points to the FortiMonitor page.

What Panopta offers

• End-to-end coverage — monitoring of user devices, networks, cloud and on-premises systems, and applications from one service.
• Synthetic tests — simulated user transactions run from public nodes, private networks and staff devices.
• Path monitoring — follows each hop between users and important applications, flagging any with packet loss, delay or jitter.
• Network maps — a live, customisable topology view that can reveal unknown devices.
• Incident handling — escalation, links to IT service management tools and automated playbooks for diagnosis and repair.
• Security Fabric integration — metrics from FortiGate devices and SD-WAN underlays, including DNS and SSL timings.

Who it works with

Fortinet aims FortiMonitor at network operations and IT teams that need visibility of both employee and customer digital experience.
