Capsa is a feature packed, bandwidth monitoring powerhouse. The Enterprise class of Capsa is currently priced at $995.00, however for the mere cost of giving them your e-mail address – they will send you a license for their Free Class of the Capsa Software. Even though the free version is missing some of the advanced monitoring features – there is still plenty left in the free version to love 😀

Capsa Free Network Analyzer

Sometimes when our network is going abnormal, we need to find out and check the top bandwidth users for clues, such as BitTorrent downloading, online video, worm activities, and so on. With Capsa 7, you don’t need to do any settings or configurations. All you need to do is to run the program, and get the statistic results with a couple of clicks. Capsa Standard is designed with small and budget-strapped teams in mind. It helps sysadmins troubleshoot network problems by monitoring traffic transmitted over a local host and a local network. Capsa Standard provides advanced network protocol analysis of more than 1,000 protocols and network applications and can monitor 50 IP addresses. Formed through the integration of Capsa Solutions, Rubbermaid Healthcare, and Kirby Lester, our collective expertise and experience creates a new leadership standard in the critical areas of medication management, healthcare IT, and pharmacy automation. Today, we are focused on the delivery of healthcare into tomorrow. Capsa is an easy-to-use Ethernet packet sniffer (network analyzer or network sniffer) for network monitoring and troubleshooting purposes. It performs real-time packet capturing, 24/7 network.

Capsa is among the industry leaders in network monitoring for a reason… They know what they are doing. Even the free version of Capsa is feature rich, user friendly and most importantly – It looks fantastic. Below is a screenshot I took of a simple traffic report of our network…

As you can see in the screenshot above, Capsa has pinpointed 2 of the major sources of network traffic and displayed them in a easy to read bar graph 🙂 If you like Capsa, you may want to check out another one of my favorite Network Analysis tools – Network Miner.
