Case Study: Large Financial Services Enterprise achieves full network visibility, improved security and 25–49% tool traffic reduction with Gigamon

Tired of Headaches, This NetOps Team Found Relief with Gigamon

A large financial services enterprise was struggling with an unstable visibility stack from a competitor—link failures, configuration problems, poor access to high-fidelity data, heavy traffic burden on monitoring tools, limited troubleshooting ability and multiple blind spots that hurt network performance and security.

The company deployed Gigamon’s Deep Observability Pipeline (with GigaSMART and Inline Bypass), and saw immediate operational improvements: simpler administration and fewer manual tasks, full visibility across physical/virtual/cloud environments, and a 25–49% reduction in traffic to security and monitoring tools. These gains accelerated threat detection and response, eliminated blind spots, improved network performance, and helped avoid substantial tool and upgrade costs (over $200K in potential savings), with strong support and an easy-to-use GUI.
