Sparrowiq Explained

SparrowIQ is a packet-based traffic analysis and network performance monitoring solution that provides network managers with near real-time traffic visibility into network usage based on conversations, applications, users and class of service.^{[1] [2]}

The product was developed by Solana Networks (Ottawa, Ontario, Canada) to allow smaller businesses to gain access to flow-based network traffic monitoring solutions - normally too complex or unaffordable.^{[3] [4] [5]}

SparrowIQ was awarded the "Best New Product" by the ASCII Group in June 2015^[6] and "Strong Value" award by Enterprise Management Associates in 2013.^[7]
