ThousandEyes Visibility for Your Cisco Technology
Digital transformation efforts have created a modern enterprise environment that is more interconnected and Internet-dependent than ever before. Yet, Internet blind spots related to network services and supporting infrastructure, such as DNS, BGP routing, VPNs, Wi-Fi, and more can limit IT’s ability to assure a consistent experience for all its users, wherever they may be located.
ThousandEyes’ integrations with Cisco solutions are essential to successful digital transformation. ThousandEyes Internet and Cloud Intelligence complements your existing Cisco solutions, bringing powerful visibility to every dependency that impacts the user experience across the IT ecosystem.
AppDynamics
ThousandEyes’ and AppDynamics’ bi-directional integration automatically and seamlessly merges Cisco ThousandEyes network assurance with Cisco AppDynamics’ advanced application performance monitoring (APM). With this integration, users of ThousandEyes and AppDynamics gain a combined view of the deep insights offered by both solutions in a simple and automated fashion, enabling fast visual correlation of application behavior to underlying network performance, regardless of whether the network is fully private, SD-WAN, or the Internet. The result is immediate and reliable determination of root cause—whether network or application-related—when end-user experience falls below acceptable levels.
Cisco Catalyst 9000
ThousandEyes vantage points on Cisco Catalyst® 9300 and 9400 switches provide you with immediate insight into the digital experience of campus users connecting to any application over any network. This enables you to quickly see detailed metrics and a visualization of network paths between your campus and the critical SaaS and multi-cloud hosted services that lay outside of your direct control. ThousandEyes vantage points are natively supported on Catalyst 9300 and 9400 Series switches to provide in-depth visibility into both underlay and overlay network performance, enabling you to correlate external service delivery paths with internal LAN and network device metrics, as well as to receive alerts on the health and availability of all services connected to the campus.

Cisco RoomOS
Employees rely on collaboration applications like Webex by Cisco to stay productive, but unpredictable Internet performance can bring their meetings to a standstill. With ThousandEyes on Cisco RoomOS devices, IT teams now have powerful insight into meeting room connectivity, without the need to install and maintain additional software or equipment.
Cisco Secure Access
Discover vital insights into endpoint health, network stability, and SaaS application performance with Cisco Secure Access Experience Insights, powered by ThousandEyes. This advanced integration is essential for remote and hybrid workforces. With Experience Insights, gain a comprehensive understanding of user experience, from endpoint metrics to application access, ensuring reliable and efficient performance. This integration aids IT teams in swiftly identifying and resolving issues, boosting productivity, and streamlining IT operations. Experience Insights equips you with the tools for effective digital workspace management, ensuring seamless user experiences across your network.
Cisco SD-WAN
ThousandEyes’ enterprise vantage points, natively integrated within Cisco SD-WAN routing platforms, including Meraki MX appliances, empower you to measure and proactively monitor overlay and SaaS app performance. Gain hop-by-hop visibility into the network underlay, including detailed path and performance metrics on the Cisco Catalyst® 8300 and 8200 Series Edge Platforms and Cisco 4000 Series Integrated Service Routers (ISRs). This detailed view of path and performance metrics lets you observe every Layer 3 hop, facilitating the correlation of network and application performance and ensuring swift resolution of user-impacting issues without additional computing infrastructure.
Meraki MX
Assuring uninterrupted connectivity between branch sites and applications is crucial for maintaining employee productivity and operational continuity. By integratingThousandEyes with Meraki MX devices, IT teams can gain clear insights into end-to-end network paths, elevate the app experience, actively monitor global Internet health, and pinpoint performance issues. This proactive approach helps optimize the performance of distributed sites and SaaS applications across Meraki SD-WAN.

Webex by Cisco
ThousandEyes enhances collaboration experiences by providing end-to-end visibility between user locations and Webex® conferencing services. With ThousandEyes Cloud Agents in Webex data centers and embedded Endpoint Agents in RoomOS devices, user experience is proactively simulated to understand and optimize performance before it impacts users. Endpoint Agent metrics are conveniently sent to the Webex Control Hub dashboard for streamlined troubleshooting, enabling efficient resolution of performance issues. Using Real-time Transport Protocol (RTP) Stream testing, ThousandEyes Enterprise and Cloud agents track key experience metrics, such as Mean Opinion Scores (MOS), Packet Delay Variation (PDV), latency, loss, and discards. ThousandEyes automatically discovers Webex endpoints, dramatically simplifying testing for dynamic multimedia video conferencing and Webex calling sessions.
