Another plug for NetEqualizer
Great product and support!!
We have used Netequalizer for about 6 years. Very pleased with the results=
as it uses the ' fairness' principle. That is, total bw divide by # of us=
ers equals bw per user. Pretty brilliant idea. We noticed a change right=
away - within the first hour -with response and speed. We were a packetee=
r shop but quickly switch to netequalizer from day one. The students stopp=
ed complaining.
:)
We were literally spending about 2-3 (or more) hours per day managing the p=
acketeer....now with the netequalizer its maybe 2-3 hours a year. The time=
we do spend on it is for reports and upgrades. When we need reports, it =
readily available.
Set it and forget it! With limited staff, I recouped those hours!
We manage 200MB and will be increasing to 350MB - more devices per student.=
The nice thing about it is we can dedicate bw to a particular app/client =
if needed (like streaming media or video conferencing). Great to have that=
flexibility.
We give low bw to all p2p programs so basically it worthless to run one. H=
aven't had a notice in 6 years.
HEOC speaks well here.
I hope this is helpful, let me know if I can answer any more questions.
