Case Study: Fortune 100 Software Company achieves doubled test-lab productivity and remote-work enablement with NETSCOUT

Fortune 100 Software Company Doubles Test Lab Productivity and Adds Support for Remote Workers

A Fortune 100 enterprise software company struggled to validate releases across many servers and NICs because its test lab relied on manual patch panels. The patch-panel approach was error-prone, became disorganized over time, demanded frequent physical trips to the lab, and couldn’t keep up with plans to increase release frequency.

The company deployed NETSCOUT TestStream Management Software with nGenius 3900 Test Automation switches to automate topology creation, provide scalable port speeds, and enable remote access. The change boosted test lab productivity by about 50%, eliminated the need for physical lab visits, reduced tool purchases, allowed remote overnight testing, supported a seamless COVID-19 work-from-home transition, and was replicated at a sister lab.
