Case Study: Catchpoint simplifies multi-site packet capture with QA Cafe's CloudShark

Catchpoint Using CloudShark to Simplify Multi-Site Capture

Catchpoint, a company that provides real-time analytics for internet service performance, needed a better way to manage packet captures from more than 100 monitoring locations worldwide. Its teams were generating 10 to 20 captures a day and had been relying on Wireshark plus email to collect and share large pcap files, which was slow and cumbersome. QA Cafe’s CloudShark was used to help simplify this multi-site capture workflow.

Using QA Cafe’s CloudShark appliance and API, Catchpoint centralized captures from hundreds of servers, secured access, and shared packet data through browser-based links instead of sending files back and forth. The result was faster collaboration and easier analysis without requiring everyone to install Wireshark, and the company said tasks that once took 10 to 30 minutes now take only seconds. QA Cafe helped Catchpoint reduce complexity, save time and money, and improve network troubleshooting efficiency.
