Key Takeaways
  • Explore the new AppNeta interface, which features a design that is more consistent with DX NetOps.
  • Work with an updated design that is clearer, more accessible, and easier to use.
  • Utilize functionality that is consistent with previous versions, including workflows, configuration options, and reports and dashboards.

Broadcom offers two robust solutions for network operations: DX NetOps and AppNeta. These solutions work together to provide active, passive, and infrastructure monitoring, giving you continuous, end-to-end visibility into your networks.

Our vision is to bring DX NetOps and AppNeta closer together to offer experience-driven NetOps—providing a unified solution that delivers comprehensive network visibility and network path analytics. We’ve worked toward that vision by integrating AppNeta and DX NetOps. Through this integration, you can display and analyze AppNeta data inside of DX NetOps.

Now we’re redesigning AppNeta’s interface to improve user experience and give the two products a similar look and feel. By harmonizing AppNeta’s design to be consistent with the intuitive DX NetOps interface, we will offer our customers a more seamless experience when they use these two products together.

In this blog, we’ll explore what you can expect to see in AppNeta’s new user interface design.

AppNeta's new aesthetic

We are upgrading AppNeta’s interface design to enhance the overall user experience. The updated design is clearer, more accessible, and easier to use. This interface also offers a more consistent experience when users are doing digital experience monitoring and infrastructure monitoring.

The new interface also aligns more closely with DX NetOps. The design will provide a more visually cohesive experience and facilitate seamless transitions for users of both products. The elements that we’re planning to change include:

  • Colors
  • Fonts
  • Icons

Here’s an early look at the interface. (Note: The designs are subject to change.)

Functionality will not change

This update will preserve the existing functionality and reliability of AppNeta, with no changes to its operation. All settings and navigation will stay the same, including:

  • Workflows. No alterations have been made to monitoring workflows. You will use AppNeta the same way as before.
  • Configuration options. The existing configuration options will be maintained, ensuring that your customization and setup remain unchanged.
  • Reports and dashboards. You will find and analyze your monitoring data in the same locations as before.

Launch timeline

We're planning to roll out the new interface in May 2024. Our team is working diligently to ensure a smooth transition, and we'll keep you updated through its launch.
