Service Provider NetFlow Collectors

I personally recommend Kentik.
We mainly got it for DDoS detection which so far been 100% reliable for us
Now we also use it for other traffic analysis.
Query is extremely fast.
Support is also fantastic. If you're looking for a feature that they may not have, just ask...

Hi Nanog....

We are looking at replacing our Netflow collector. I am wonder what other service providers are using to collect netflow data off their Core and Edge Routers. Pros/Cons... What to watch out for any info would help.

We are mainly looking to analyze the netflow data. Bonus if it does ddos detection and mitigation.

We are looking at
ManageEngine Netflow Analyzer
PRTG
Plixer - Scrutinizer
PeakFlow
Kentik
Solarwinds NTA

Thanks in advance...

Erik
