Case Study: Intuit achieves scalable, centralized network visibility with Big Switch Networks

Pervasive Monitoring and Security Across Multiple Data Centers

Intuit, the business and financial management software company behind QuickBooks, Quicken, and TurboTax, needed a better way to monitor and secure traffic across its many data centers as it expanded globally and shifted toward cloud and mobile delivery. Its legacy network packet broker setup created tap and tool silos, making monitoring inefficient and driving costs up as the data center footprint grew.

Big Switch Networks implemented Big Monitoring Fabric, a next-generation Network Packet Broker, to centralize packet collection and distribute traffic to the right monitoring and security tools. The solution gave Intuit multi-tenant, role-based access and simplified operations, while enabling scale-out growth and investment protection; importantly, Intuit reported it could monitor 5x more traffic within its original budget, along with improved agility and lower total cost of ownership.
