Track user transactions throughout the application infrastructure. Troubleshoot application problems in production, or validate readiness prior to deployment. A single transaction can have a very hard life traversing your network, and all the databases and applications it must run through.
Powerful, graphical diagrams and customizable reports help you and stakeholders get a clear understanding of application behavior.
Many application support teams use OPNET AppTransaction Xpert for application troubleshooting and to predict an application’s behavior before it’s released.
Create “what if” scenarios where you can test the effect of an infrastructure change, such as a data center consolidation, on application response time.
OPNET AppTransaction Xpert agents are lightweight and can easily be deployed enterprise wide. In contrast, capture agents from competing products can be demanding on CPU processing, disk usage, and include database components.

"Prior to our work with OPNET, IT engineers spent a significant amount of time analyzing trace data and performance metrics, frequently arriving at different and conflicting conclusions on the cause of performance problems... We want to spend less time firefighting and spend more time focusing on SunTrust's strategic business goals. OPNET is a key enabler in this transformation."

"This is what I really need! AppTransaction Xpert provides more value than [CA NetQoS] SuperAgent. I know we don't have a network issue, but I can prove this with you, not with SuperAgent."

“OPNET’s [AppResponse Xpert and AppTransaction Xpert] help me and my team every day to resolve several types of problems or incidents. They make it easier to isolate root cause and specify the origin of slowness of an application or the “weak-link” of the production chain.”

“OPNET has proven effective in areas where application performance monitoring tool suites were very expensive, and required expertise in configuration and tuning. The use of OPNET reduced application deployment time, tuning of SLA/SLR monitoring and management cost (both personnel and tools) by 10x.”

“It’s a pleasure to provide same-day – or even same-meeting – root cause identification for some of the vexing performance problems that get escalated to our team. In challenging cases the OPNET tools allow me to dig into the problem and present persuasive evidence. This keeps the team focused on resolution.”

“Root cause analysis takes minutes or hours and not days and weeks even in a complex multi-tier SOA environment. In several cases we have been able to identify and resolve a number of cross platform problems, and not just performance issues, that individual vendors were not even able to isolate. This has been invaluable for troubleshooting applications in production and perhaps more importantly for new application releases prior to deployment before they impact our customers.”
