Increase Workforce Productivity
Business
Recreational use of the Internet during business hours has broad implications for companies beyond the cost of employees not doing their work. Peer-to-peer applications, social networking sites and streaming video drive enormous volumes of traffic over corporate networks. This high traffic volume creates network congestion and delays for legitimate enterprise traffic.
For example, while one employee is downloading a hi-def movie trailer, the entire branch office workforce may suffer slow access to the CRM application. Employees may also be downloading questionable content such as material that violates copyright laws.
With Exinda, companies can detect and control recreational traffic including evasive or encrypted P2P traffic that can easily slip past firewalls. The Exinda appliance discovers all types of traffic on the network and generates reports that reveal the top applications, URLs and hosts. Once the various traffic types are identified, Exinda allows network managers to set policies to classify and prioritize business applications while limiting or suppressing recreational traffic. This affordable, complete and easy-to-implement solution delivers real benefits by helping businesses ensure predictable application performance while keeping communication costs in check.
