And now with the TURBO mode we can test devices up to 40G without any problem. Also the tech support is TOP NOTCH. > > **Cons**: Overall everything is well documented and easy to use and understand. I would like to see the GUI have saved preferences for setting port stat columns a certain size etc. Currently you have to resize them each time you bring it up. But that is minor compared to the amazing functionality of the product. ----- ### "Great tool to have to complement your enterprise network support systems" — 5.0/5 > **jeff** | *18 December 2023* | Computer Networking | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Ease of use, mature gui and the ability to craft packets as well as use pre loaded or saved traffic sessions. > > **Cons**: selecting/discovering interfaces but that has matured as well. Much improved > > It is my go to product for packet crafting for security/FW testing, network load and fail over stimuli testing. Application simulation for performance. I have used this product almost ten years. It has matured greatly and if its result data can be tied into analytics/splunk/AI type systems vai api pipeline an AI system can take the traffic load/impact results from Ostinato and provide additional analysis feedback. ----- ### "Why Yes" — 4.0/5 > **Oscar** | *30 March 2023* | Computer Networking | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: Helps you know your infra weakness and what needs to be improve > > **Cons**: can impact in a baddly way your network if not done with precautions > > i could realize where i need to improve or change network device due to performance issues ----- ### "Great product" — 5.0/5 > **Juan** | *2 March 2023* | Aviation & Aerospace | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Ostinato is a very easy to use traffic generator. It provides a comprehensive API that can be easily incorporated into an existing test environment. The Ostinato GUI makes it easy to replay existing network captures (.pcap files) to exercise a DUT. It also has other cool features such as the ability to export a given configuration to a python source file. This allows for quick logic prototyping and testing. Moreover, Srivats provides outstanding customer service and always responds to questions in a timely manner. > > **Cons**: some Ostinato products require license authentication with a remote server. This is not a problem for most people, but it could be a limiting factor if the intent is to use it in classified labs with not access to the outside world ----- ### "Fine product. Replicates customer issues very well." — 5.0/5 > **Scott** | *11 September 2023* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: Powerful and easy to understand.Easy to install, too. > > **Cons**: A little confusing understanding how all the streams/interfaces/names all work together. (a bit diffuse conceptually at times) but I can always figure it out. > > Very good.Would love to know if there's any way (present or future) to leverage a CLI-based ostinato.I.e. a CLI command in linux that would do the same as the "generate" click in the GUI.Example (new command called "ostinato-send", etc.)ostinato-send etc. ----- Page: 1 / 3\ Next: [Next page](https://www.getapp.com.au/software/2051701/ostinato?page=2) ## Links - [View on GetApp](https://www.getapp.com.au/software/2051701/ostinato) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | ----- ## Structured Data
