Vunetrix Health Monitoring Company Profile
Vunetrix boasts that they make the integrators the 'HERO' by using Vunetrix's monitoring.
We spoke to Vunetrix to better understand their offering, target customers, go-to-market approach, and what has changed since we last covered them in 2012.
In this note we look at:
- Who is Vunetrix?
- What customers do they target?
- What network health monitoring do they offer?
- How does their system work?
- How much does it cost?
- What is their go-to-market?
- How are they no longer related to systems integrators Contava / Paladin
